Hello JAMF peeps!
My company would like to add some domains to the "Safe Domains" list in Junk Email protection. My question is: Is there a way to do this via a policy or MCX or configuration profile, or even a script that can be run. We have over 600 Macs and it would be a huge job to have to manually go through and add the domains to each outlook client. Any suggestions would be AWESOME!!
Thanks!

Without looking too hard - No dictionary entry in the outlook app for it to be apple scripted easily.
Not possible to do it server side?

Outlook 2011 doesn't synch any junk settings from Exchange 2010 (or Notes, or Categories, or Tasks..)
Allegedly if you add an email address into the host's Address Book.app/Contacts.app, and Outlook has permission to access said contacts, then OL will treat that address as a 'safe sender' - otherwise I'd use Composer to watch for file changes when editing the safe domain list and then decide if this is Casperable.

Unfortunately, Outlook for Mac doesn't store all of its preferences in plist files. Would be nice.
I've checked all the preference locations I know and fear junkmail domain settings are stored within the Microsoft User Data folder, which contains mostly proprietary Microsoft file formats.
This also isn't scriptable.
Pardon the boilerplate, but...
Please be sure to let Microsoft know you'd like to see this feature in future versions by using the Help --> Send Feedback mechanism in any Office application.
