Saving e-mail headers in SharePoint columns

When uploading e-mail messages from Lotus Notes to SharePoint, the e-mail headers (From, To, CC, Subject, Date, etc.) can be automatically mapped to SharePoint columns. To enable this mapping, the SharePoint document library needs to be set up with e-mail specific columns. To learn how to do this, read the knowledge base article Mapping e-mail headers to SharePoint metadata.

Note: When uploading an e-mail message with attachments to a SharePoint 2010 library with column validation, and simultaneously replacing attachments with links, the e-mail headers are not persisted as SharePoint document properties.

The mapping between e-mail headers and SharePoint fields is configurable from the mapping table in harmon.ie’s preferences:

1. From the application menu, select File > Preferences > harmon.ie > E-mail Settings.
2. Click the Mapping button to open the E-mail Header Mapping dialog.
   
3. From here, you can edit and remove the mapping of existing e-mail headers as well as add new mappings. Multiple SharePoint fields, separated by a semicolon, can be configured as candidates to be mapped to an e-mail header. harmon.ie assigns each header value in an e-mail message to only one SharePoint field - the first in the list of fields that exists in the document library. Any e-mail header field can be mapped to SharePoint metadata.
