CLOUD ADVISORY: Email attachments removed when using Server-Side Send and File in iManage
Audience: iManage Cloud customers using:
> FileSite/DeskSite with Email Management
> Work Desktop for Windows (WDW) with Server-Side Send and File. To verify if you are using Server-Side Send and File, complete the following steps on a machine running WDW:
> Navigate to the imEMM.config file in the following folder location - %AppData%\iManage\Work\Configs
> Open the imEMM.config file in a text editor.
> Locate the "ClientSideSendAndFile" configuration setting near the end of the file and check the value. "ClientSideSendAndFile":0 indicates you are using Server-Side Send and File, and you ARE affected by this issue.
> Close the imEMM.config file and exit the text editor.
Issue
When sending an email in Transport Neutral Encapsulation Format (TNEF) or Rich Text Format (RTF) and using the Server-Side Send and File feature with iManage Work in the Cloud, email attachments might be removed from the email when it's filed into iManage Work.
Action
This issue has only been reported by one iManage Cloud customer at this time (i.e. there are no widespread reports) however iManage recommend setting a Remote Domain rule in the Exchange Admin Center to prevent this from occurring with emails filed using the Server-Side Send and File feature with iManage Work in the Cloud. Please see here for details for configuring this rule.

iManage Tips & Tricks
Why your Work Panel or Open/Save/Select dialogs may appear blank or fail to load in Work Desktop for Windows
From Work Desktop for Windows (WDW) 10.2.6 onwards, the Work Panel and the picker dialogs use Chromium binaries. There was a known issue related to the Chromium binaries which was resolved in WDW 10.2.7, however, users on WDW 10.2.7 or higher may still experience issues whereby the Work Panel in Outlook is blank or does not load, or the File Picker dialogs are blank. Whilst in some situations, the issue may be worked around by using the Ctrl+F5 key combination to cause the dialog to refresh, this may not alleviate the issue in all situations as there are a number of causes (or contributing factors) for this behaviour including:
Problems with building the Chromium engine, or its cache
Authentication “loops”
Formatting issues in the iManWork config file
Misconfiguration on the Work Server
Out of memory exceptions
Missing anti-virus exclusions
The following guide provides more information on this behaviour, including general troubleshooting steps and registry setting optimisation, however, if you require assistance please contact support.
How to enable debug logging in Work Desktop for Windows
Work Desktop for Windows (WDW) allows you to create advanced log files to aid support engineers in troubleshooting and debugging problems with Email Management (EM) and Microsoft Office integration. These logs are particularly useful for troubleshooting constant or reproducible issues. To enable the debug logging:
Locate the log configuration file LogConfig.xml in C:\Program Files\iManage\Work or C:\Program Files (x86)\iManage\Work
Edit the LogConfig.xml file and change the level value property from <level value="INFO" /> to <level value="DEBUG" />
Restart the iManage Work Agent from the System Tray
Additional WDW logging can also be enabled - see here for more details.
