Hi newbie question.... I am trying to enable a deleted item retention policy in 2007 but am unsure as to where and what i have to do Basically when people delete emails it is going to the deleted items... and it is just sitting there. How do i purge said emails after 60 days... After reading many posts i have found by doing following these instructions... this should sort me out Organization Configuration > Mailbox > Managed Default Folders. I created a Managed Content Settings item for the Deleted Items folder. I set it to perm delete after 60 days for any mail item placed in the folder. Action to be take at end of retention... (delete and allow recovery) Is this what i should be doing? thanks in advance

You can set it at database properties.Regards from www.windowsadmin.info | www.blog.windowsadmin.info
