Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router software requirements
Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2013
Applies to: Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Email Router and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online
This section applies to Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online and on-premises versions of Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013. It lists the software and application software requirements for Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Email Router.
Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router Setup consists of two main components: the Email Router and the Rule Deployment Wizard. The Email Router component installs the Email Router service and Email Router Configuration Manager. You use the Email Router Configuration Manager to configure the Email Router. The Rule Deployment Wizard component deploys the rules that enables received email messages to be tracked.
Version support
Be aware of the following requirements for Email Router:
Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Email Router requires CRM 2013
Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2015 Email Router requires CRM 2015
Important
Unless specified otherwise, within the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Support Lifecycle policy, Microsoft Dynamics CRM applications support the latest version and service pack (SP) for all required components, such as Windows Server, SQL Server, Microsoft Office, Internet Explorer, and Exchange Server. However, to fully support the latest version of a required component you should apply the latest update for Microsoft Dynamics CRM.
You can install the Email Router and Rule Deployment Wizard on any computer that is running one of the following operating systems, and that has network access to both Microsoft Dynamics CRM and the email server:
Windows 7 32-bit and 64-bit editions
Windows Server 2008 (x64 versions) or Windows Server 2008 R2
Windows Server 2012 (see requirements below)
Important
-
After Microsoft Dynamics CRM Server Setup is finished, apply the latest update rollup, if any.
-
Running Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router and Email Router Configuration Manager (32-bit) is not supported on a Windows Server 64-bit operating system, in Windows-On-Windows (WOW) mode. Install and run the 64-bit version of the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router.
Rule Deployment Wizard Requires MAPI
The Rule Deployment Wizard requires the Microsoft Exchange Server Messaging API (MAPI) client runtime libraries. To install the MAPI client runtime libraries, see Microsoft Exchange Server MAPI Client and Collaboration Data Objects 1.2.1.
Important
Installing and running the Rule Deployment Wizard on a computer that has Microsoft Office Outlook installed is not supported. Both applications use a different version of MAPI that are incompatible.
Note
MAPI versions 6.5.8147 (or later) are supported by Microsoft Exchange Server 2010.
If you already have a version of the MAPI download installed, you must uninstall it before installing the new version.
If you are installing the Rule Deployment Wizard on a system that uses Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 as its email server, you must also have installed Update Rollup 2 (or later) of Microsoft Exchange Server 2010. For more information, see Update Rollup 2 for Exchange Server 2010 (KB979611).

Additional Email Router software requirements
Exchange Server
Microsoft Exchange Server is only required if you want to use the Email Router to connect to an Exchange Server email messaging system. To do this, you can install the Email Router on any of the supported Windows or Windows Server operating systems that have a connection to the Exchange Server. The Email Router supports the following versions of Exchange Server:
Exchange Server 2007 Standard Edition
Exchange Server 2007 Enterprise Edition
Exchange Server 2010 Standard Edition
Exchange Server 2010 Enterprise Edition
*Exchange Server 2013 (Standard and Enterprise editions)
Microsoft Exchange Online
Important
Exchange 2000 Server editions aren’t supported when using these versions of Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router and Rule Deployment Wizard.
If missing, Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router Setup installs the Microsoft .NET Framework 4 on the computer where you install the Email Router.
*Using the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Email Router with Exchange Server 2013 requires at least Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 Update Rollup 2.
The Rule Deployment Wizard component must be installed on a computer that is running any of the supported Windows or Windows Server operating systems and that has the MAPI client runtime libraries installed.
Download the MAPI client runtime libraries from the Microsoft Download Center.
Messaging and transport protocols
Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router supports a variety of email messaging and transport options.
POP3
POP3-compliant email systems are supported for incoming email message routing.
Important
When you use the Forward Mailbox option on the User form, the POP3 email server must provide support where an email message can be sent as an attachment to another email message.
If you configure the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router to connect to a POP3-compliant email server, the server must support RFC 1939.
Transport protocols
Both SMTP and Exchange Online with Exchange Web Services (EWS) are messaging transport protocols that are supported for outgoing email message routing.
If you configure the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router to use an SMTP-compliant transport service, the server must support RFC 2821 and RFC 2822.
Exchange Online
Microsoft Exchange Online is a hosted enterprise messaging service from Microsoft. It provides the robust capabilities of Microsoft Exchange Server as a cloud-based service. To learn more, see Exchange Online.
Additional Email Router software requirements
If the following components are missing, they will be installed by Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router Setup:
Microsoft .NET Framework 4
Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable
Microsoft Application Error Reporting
Windows Identity Framework (WIF)
