Outlook versions supporting Personal Archives and Retention Policies

Outlook 2013 IconIn an earlier article here, I mentioned which Outlook 2010 versions were eligible for Personal Archives.

Now, with the release of Office 2013, and Outlook 2013 in particular, it’s good to get an update on the Outlook versions and their support of Personal Archives and Retention Policies in Exchange Server 2010 or Exchange Server 2013.

The following Outlook versions support Personal Archives and Retention Policies:

Retail Licenses Volume Licenses
  • Outlook 2013 stand-alone
  • Outlook 2010 stand-alone
  • Outlook 2007 stand-alone
  • Outlook 2007 included with Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007
  • Outlook 2013 stand-alone
  • Outlook 2013 included with Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2013
  • Outlook 2010 stand-alone
  • Outlook 2010 included with Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010
  • Outlook 2007 stand-alone
  • Outlook 2007 included with Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007
  • Outlook 2007 included with Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007

Few notes:

  • As mentioned here, Outlook 2007 doesn’t support adjusting retention policies;
  • Personal Archives and Retention Policies require an Microsoft Exchange Server Enterprise Client Access License.
