Email Management System for SharePoint, OneDrive and Teams

Saving and managing your e-mails and attachments

FAQs for Email Management System

For email records management in SharePoint, keep the .msg/.eml file as the system of record to preserve headers, attachments, and legal context. Optionally render a PDF/A for easy reading. Capture key metadata: From, To/Cc, Subject, Sent Date/Time, Internet Message-ID (for de-duplication), Case/Project ID, Customer/Counterparty, Sensitivity, Retention Label, and Keywords. Store large attachments as separate documents and link them to the parent email to improve search and lifecycle control.

Use drag-and-drop into modern libraries, an Outlook add-in/Quick Step that targets a specific site/library, or a shared mailbox + Power Automate rule that routes messages based on sender, subject, or keywords. Standardize content types and default metadata, and enable deduplication via Internet Message-ID so teams don’t save the same thread multiple times. (Titan Workspace can add one-click Save to DMS, auto-tagging, and thread/attachment linking to reduce user effort.)

Apply Microsoft Purview retention labels/policies to email records stored in SharePoint so they’re immutable for the required period. Use event-based retention (e.g., “case closed”) where appropriate. For investigations, place site-level holds and run eDiscovery (Standard/Premium) across SharePoint sites and mailboxes. Keep audit trails for those who viewed or exported content. Avoid unmanaged PST archives—they’re hard to govern and search. (Titan Workspace surfaces audit-ready evidence and consistent retention across email + documents.)

Organize by business unit/case/project (site or library per matter), use email content types, and enforce a least-privilege, group-based permission model. Leverage Sensitivity Labels for encryption and use client/guest portals for external sharing instead of emailing attachments. Standardize naming conventions (e.g., YYYY-MM-DD – Subject – Sender), require essential metadata, and publish a simple “where to save” guide so users don’t default to personal OneDrive. This improves searchability, compliance, and access control.
