Generate EVF Files

To set up the External Agent to convert e-mails originating from a new product into EVF files

1. Set the importSource parameter to 99; this value is reserved for testing the RDI. This parameter is used by:
   • ImportMAPI method for the IWgnImportConnector interface.
   • ImportObject method for the IWgnImportConnectors interface.
2. The RDI utility will generate EVF files for each extracted e-mail and write these files to the cache specified by the SetOutputFolder method or the EventFilePath registry value. You can then send the EVF files to CA for confirmation that e-mail events have been successfully created.
3. Configure an Event Import job to import the EVF files from the cache. See the Archive Integration Guide for details; search for 'Event Import utility'.
