Description

You can use this setting to define a custom label for the SharePoint Lists PST and most other places where the term "SharePoint" is used in Outlook. (Setting this value replaces the word "SharePoint" in Outlook strings with the value you specify.) A custom label might be particularly useful when deploying a third-party server that supports the same Microsoft SharePoint Foundation Web services Outlook uses for synchronization.

Export Builder

BETA

Configure the state, scope and options, then generate .reg, PowerShell, Intune and SCCM outputs — or add the setting to a multi-setting collection.

These exports write the registry — this is not a managed GPO.
