Outlook Plugin

It is possible to create a web link folder in Outlook using the VBS script below:

Const olFolderInbox = 6
Set objOutlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set objNamespace = objOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Set objFolder = objNamespace.GetDefaultFolder(olFolderInbox)
strFolderName = objFolder.Parent
Set objMailbox = objNamespace.Folders(strFolderName)
Set objNewFolder = objMailbox.Folders.Add("Archive")
objNewFolder.WebViewURL = "http://mailarchiva.company.com/outlook.do"
objNewFolder.WebViewOn = True

Modify the above script with your archive URL, save it with a VBS extension and test.

Once you're satisfied it is working, it can deployed centrally using Microsoft Group Policy Management Tool.

One can also use the GPO tool to centrally add the MailArchiva website to the Intranet Zone.
