The issue is that the client Outlook 2021 does not recognise XML files in add on section
10 months ago
Thanks for your response. Outlook does not support add-ins in this way unless connected to a Microsoft Server. Third party servers such as Heartinternet are not compatible.
This is a restriction with Microsoft rather than our plugin.

As we purchased the plugin, can advise a solution? V3?
10 months ago
V3 is discontinued and unsupported so no longer a recommended or viable option.
If you wish to continue to use our plugin, the best option would be to use a compatible mail server as described in the documentation. Either MS Exchange or Office365.

When using Exchange, there are several requirements in place from Microsoft. Please keep these in mind: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/outlook/add-in-requirements
