是否可以获取Microsoft Exchange Online传输规则（电子邮件服务器端规则）并将其本地应用于我的Outlook桌面邮件？

Question

I am trying to write an Add-in to Outlook 2016 and I want server-side rules (Transport rules, aka Mail Workflow) to be applied to my Outlook email locally not on Exchange online. The concept of My my Add-In is next: download server-side rules , apply to an email and send it. The maximum I have achieved was connecting to Exchange Online server and using Get methods in PowerShell to download server rules. I did not find related API only old VBA Outlook 2007 Is there any API to do so? Are there any other ways to do so?

Answer 1

AFAIK there are no automated ways to convert or export transport rules to client/Outlook rules. However, the Outlook Object Model (OOM) has good support for creating and managing Outlook rules via VBA, a COM add-in or a custom desktop application using OOM. The actions and conditions may not be 100% identical but you should be able to convert the majority of rules. See: Managing Rules in the Outlook Object Model .
