Description

By default, categories on incoming e-mail are removed, and categories are removed when replying to or forwarding an e-mail. This setting allows you to control how categories are shared as users exchange e-mail messages. You can specify that categories are not removed for users' incoming e-mail. You can also specify that e-mail messages that users reply to or forward retain the categories on the original message.

Options

The empty box and the checked box tell the checkbox items of the Group Policy editor apart (a checked box is an item that is selected by default).
