Rather than give you a list of default message classifications available in Exchange Server 2007, I want to show you how to determine the available classifications on your own. This is important because Exchange 2007 allows you to create custom message classifications. The command that I am about to show you can be used to display both default and custom message classifications.
To display the available message classifications, open the Exchange Management Shell and enter the following command:
Get-MessageClassification | Select DisplayName,SenderDescription
If you were to simply use the Get-MessageClassification command, Exchange Server 2007 would show you the display name of each available message classification, but it would not give you any sort of description. Using the Select command along with the DisplayName and SenderDescription attributes ensures that you will see the message classification's name as well as its description, as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1: Display available classifications.
Here is a quick breakdown of the default message classifications and their intended use:
| A/C
Privileged |
Used
in requests for legal advice to an attorney, or in responses from an
attorney. |
| Attachment
Removed |
A
system generated classification indicating that an attachment has been
stripped from a message. |
| Company
Confidential |
The
message contains confidential information. |
| Company
Internal |
The
message should not be sent to anyone outside of the company.
|
| Partner
Mail |
The
message contains information intended for business partners. |
