RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Mailbox Manager for Exchange 200

[Pelle, Joe]

I had briefly looked into the rules option in outlook and that “cat” didn’t fit the user’s needs.  I was hoping Mailbox Manager would be a better answer…   No offense to all the animal activists, but I don’t like cats anyway – the 4 legged kinds anyway. . . .   Joe Pelle Systems Analyst Information Technology Valassis / IT 19975 Victor Parkway Livonia, MI 48152 Tel 734.591.7324  Fax 734.632.6151 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.valassis.com/   This message may have included proprietary or protected information.  This message and the information contained herein are not to be further communicated without my express written consent.   From: Brown, Bill [contractor] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 14, 2003 10:39 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Mailbox Manager for Exchange 200   Joe,   I am just a good ole country boy and can not quite visualize what it is that you are doing.  Help me here.  Are these “emails” that you scrape data from always to the same users?  As I understand the process – Mailbox Manager cleans designated mailboxes based upon rules that the administrator provides.  The key here being that you have to tell the product which mailbox you want cleaned.  Possibly, a client-side solution [such as an Outlook rule] based on a consistent value would work better…Remember, there are many ways to skin a cat!  Damn!  Now I will have the animal activists on my case…   R/Bill   -----Original Message----- From: Pelle, Joe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 14, 2003 10:21 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Mailbox Manager for Exchange 200   Bill, thanks!   Basically, I have a third party tool that scrapes some data from emails and faxes that data out, etc.  Once that process has taken place I want those emails to be automatically deleted (after 2 days, just in case J)  Do you know if mailbox manager will do this?   Joe Pelle Systems Analyst Information Technology Valassis / IT 19975 Victor Parkway Livonia, MI 48152 Tel 734.591.7324  Fax 734.632.6151 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.valassis.com/   This message may have included proprietary or protected information.  This message and the information contained herein are not to be further communicated without my express written consent.   From: Brown, Bill [contractor] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 14, 2003 10:14 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Mailbox Manager for Exchange 200   Joe,   As a follow-up, it does get just a little dicey if you are going to manage mailboxes for different users in a different manner.  In other words, maybe for front office folks 90 day deletion policy, sales folks 180 day deletion policy, and all others 45 day deletion policy.  The only way I have found to make this work is via a custom LDAP query using groups.  This is the text for that query:   (&(mailNickname=*)(memberOf=CN=SPHQ Site Mailbox Cleaning,OU=SPHQ,DC=sphq,DC=ssp,DC=navy,DC=mil))   Obviously – change the names top protect the innocent…   R/Bill   -----Original Message----- From: Pelle, Joe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 14, 2003 10:01 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Mailbox Manager for Exchange 200   Awesome, thanks!   Joe Pelle Systems Analyst Information Technology Valassis / IT 19975 Victor Parkway Livonia, MI 48152 Tel 734.591.7324  Fax 734.632.6151 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.valassis.com/   This message may have included proprietary or protected information.  This message and the information contained herein are not to be further communicated without my express written consent.   From: Brown, Bill [contractor] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 14, 2003 9:57 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: Mailbox Manager for Exchange 200   Joe,   It is built into the product.  Use the SysMngr MMC and highlight Recipient Policies.  Select new policy and mailbox manager and you are on your way…   R/Bill   -----Original Message----- From: Pelle, Joe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 14, 2003 8:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] OT: Mailbox Manager for Exchange 200   Sorry for the off topic request, but I have a feeling someone can easily point me in the right direction…   I am looking for Mailbox Manager for Exchange 2000.   The MS site makes reference to it being in the BackOffice resource kit – is that downloadable?   If anyone can help me out I would really appreciate it!   Thanks!   Joe Pelle Systems Analyst Information Technology Valassis / IT 19975 Victor Parkway Livonia, MI 48152 Tel 734.591.7324  Fax 734.632.6151 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.valassis.com/   This message may have included proprietary or protected information.  This message and the information contained herein are not to be further communicated without my express written consent.
