The following dialog will appear, instructing that you must restart Outlook 2010 for your new MAPI account to take affect.


Click the OK button.

Installation of MAPI account is now complete.

Click the Finish button.

Then exit and restart Outlook 2010.

When you restart Outlook 2010 you will notice a new email account displayed in the left hand column.

Click in the arrow to the left new email account, then select the inbox by clicking in it.

If this is a pre-existing email account, it will take a while for MAPI to fully synchronize Outlook 2010 with the fastmetrics™ collaboration server. During this time you will see (not responding) displayed in the titlebar. This is normal.

This process can take take up to several hours, depending on how many emails there are in your account.

For this reason, we recommend waiting until the end of your workday before setting up your new MAPI email account.

Once MAPI synchronization has completed you will see your email messages displayed in the center column, and (Not Responding) will disappear from the titlebar.

You have now fully installed and configured MAPI, and synchronized with the collaboration server.

The next time you check your mail, there will only be a slight delay while your latest emails are copied from the server.
