We're running MS Outlook 2010 and MS Exchange 2010
When you hit reply in Outlook, any attachments are automatically removed. This is good, as it stops the e-mail network being overloaded. Unfortunately, Outlook doesn't note what the file was or even that a file was there. After a few e-mails have been traded back and forward, the "conversation thread" can get a bit confusing without knowing the file that is being referred to.
What my bosses boss has tasked us to do is find a way to indicate a file was there (hopefully without requiring the end user to do anything).
The Internet Header as a field that shows "X-MS-Has-Attach: yes".
What I'm thinking is that Exchange transport rule to check if there is an attachment. If there is, it then adds a line showing the name of the file to the bottom or top (for preference top) of the body of the e-mail.
For example:
From:John Smith
Sent: 29 April 2013 11:07
To: John Brown
Subject:test
Please find attached as discussed
Becomes:
From:John Smith
Sent: 29 April 2013 11:07
To: John Brown
Subject:test
Attached:test.txt
Please find attached as discussed
Is this possible?
