I’m setting the mail store retention to 0 days tonight, when I get
in tomorrow morning I’ll sit in ESM and kick off the cleanup agent.
Simple solution, will take me ten minutes to do. From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Al Mulnick How much time do you have till they need
to be purged? Any benefit of lowering the mailbox
retention time for the duration of the removal process (or permanently if that
fits?) Maybe lower it to a day or two and let the system take care of
this. You may want to increase the online maintenance process time to run
as well. IIRC, these are settings you can make
via policy. Al From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Desmond Does mbconn purge mailboxes? I just looked at it and it s like it only
reconnects I think… From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of joe Oh... I think you are screwed. :o) I once looked at alternate methods to do
this and mailbox reconnects but it was all MAPI based and MS was very ungiving
in terms of documentation around this stuff. What I got working was so
incredibly flakey I didn't trust it and it never made it out of very very raw
pre-alpha POC stage. I really would like to find some other
method because the method MS gave for doing reconnects in E2K3 completely sucks
though they can at least say it is better than what was available for E2K. We
went from unforgivable to sucky. I wish they would publish source to the ESM or
mbconn which are doing this stuff through MAPI from what I can tell. joe From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of joe Recipe 17.13 in the Windows Server
Cookbook... It is probably on Robbie's website
somewhere, I would post it here but I am not clear if I have the rights to even
though I wrote the script. I believe it is owned by O'Reilly. joe From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Desmond I’m pretty sure we’ve had this discussion here before, but I
can’t find the thread. :( I need to programmatically purge a fairly
extensive list of mailboxes across more than a dozen mailbox servers. I cannot
wait the retention time, and I certainly cannot run the cleanup agent on 12
servers x 4 storage groups x 5 mailstores manually. I have this feeling
I’m going to be told I’m SOL, but, can I purge mailboxes somehow in
code/script? Thx, brian Thanks, c -
