Good morning,

I am trying to enable Outlook 2007 users on an Exchange 2007 server to send each other outlook items and retain the categories the sender has assigned to the items.

I have done the following:

1) There are no rules in outlook Rules and Alerts to strip categories from messages.  In fact, I deleted all my rules.  If I try to export, it tells me there are no rules to export.

2) Registry entries have been made for the following:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Preferences
Value Name: SendPersonalCategories
Value Type: DWORD
Value Data: 1

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Preferences
Value Name: AcceptCategories
Value Type: DWORD
Value Data: 1

I tried creating the registry entries manually.  I tried creating the registry entries via a GPO from the DC.  No difference.

3) I ran the following at the Exchange 2007 Management Shell prompt:

Set-TransportConfig ClearCategories: $False


If anyone has this working, can you tell me if the category remains when you send yourself an email with a category assigned to it?

Thanks,
RIchard
