Hello community!
This seems to be a popular question on the MSDN & O365 forums, so I’m curious to get your input. Email-enabled doc libs (EEDL for brevity) aren’t available in SPO (seemingly because of the Exchange/AD stuff that SP on-prem does), so I’m curious to know:
- Do any of your customers care? Have you had anyone explicitly say ‘I can’t move to SPO because of EEDL?’
- Have you ever used one of the (few) alternatives?
- If you’ve used EEDLs before, either built-in or with one of the alternatives, what did you like? What didn’t you like?
I’m currently working on bringing email-enabled document libraries to SharePoint Online through a SharePoint app & we should be to beta state by next week. Is anyone interested in beta testing?
Thanks Ryan! I’ve seen that post before – from what I could tell, there are very few options for O365 currently. I’m hoping to get a beta out this week (we’ve got a different app going through approval right now & it is…an experience). I’ll get a link out as soon as it’s ready.
thx!

Site Mailboxes <> EEDL but they sure do sound the same for the average user.
I wrote a post a while back on options for EEDL on SharePoint Online

Am interested – let us know what you’ve got and I’ll add you to the post above.
