No,
dumpsteralwayson is used to set the mail properties for the mail folders other
than deleted items and to allow for hard deletes to be recovered.
Basically, it means that all items must be sent to deleted items retention if
they existed in a protected folder.
It's
not quite that clear though is it? People who have older clients aren't
subject to this "feature" at all and only the items that were sent to the
Deleted Items folder will have deleted items retention.
Basically.

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] GPO and the Outlook DumpsterThere are a lot of default settings that most admins change - and deleted item retension is one of them (at least I would hope it is).The DumpsterAlwaysOn setting is client side, and only affects whether or not you can see the dumptser. It most certainly exists on every folder in Exchange (when DIR is enabled). The offender does NOT need to have this registry key set for a Shift-Delete email to be recovered. Fairly simple to prove to yourself, but I know I'm one of three people in the company with it enabled, and I use it to get our exec admin's out of trouble quite a bit....Roger--------------------------------------------------------------

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] GPO and the Outlook DumpsterI usually refrain from adding to a thread more than once, except to occasionally concur. I have always thought that, all things being equal, Shift-Delete is indeed a permanent delete, given the following circumstances:>> Assuming you DON'T have deleted item retention enabled - which is the default configuration>> You have not enabled DumpsterAlwaysOn -which is the default configuration>>You don't do brick-level backup, you don't have an offline Exchange server you test restore to, AND you are not willing to interrupt other users' access to do a live restoreI've been known to be wrong before, but I don't think this is one of those moments :-pSincerely,

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] GPO and the Outlook DumpsterBut Shift-Delete is not a permanent delete. Assuming you have deleted item retension enabled, shift-delete simply marks the message for deletion, but it is still available within that folder's dumpster until the DIR time expires, and is accessible using the DumpsterAlwaysOn registry setting for Outlook.Scared the crap out of my desktop guy who thought he could hide email...Roger--------------------------------------------------------------

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] GPO and the Outlook Dumpsteryour protection against this "CYA" type of deletion is backup. If you maintain a diligent backup of your Exchange Server, you can always do a restore to your offline server whenever you need to "prove" something. Disabling access to the "Recover Deleted Items" folder will not buy you much with a determined user who wants to cover his/her track. Shift-Del will not send deleted items to that folder, you know?Sincerely,

Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] GPO and the Outlook DumpsterBecause while the Recover Deleted Items addin allows you...err...recover deleted items a user can also delete things permanently. We have had people 'covering their tracks' by deleting emails. I don't want to disable the feature all together as it's a useful IT tool for managers etc, but not for users.
