Don't forget that the dumpsteralways on feature enables items to be recovered that haven't touched the 'deleted items folder'. Even if you turn it off; users can still retrieve deleted items that have been cleared from the deleted items folder. That's by design.

Exchange 5.5 SP4, 10 Exchange servers, 1 site Outlook 2000 clients I was tasked with the following and need some help finding the answers. I need to be assured that when an item is deleted from a mailbox, it is really gone. We currently have the dumpster feature enabled which I plan to disable. My question is, if a mail item is deleted and the dumpster is turned off, is the item really unrecoverable? If it is recoverable, how can I change our configuration so that it is unrecoverable? Is that even possible? Could someone reconstruct that data in any way even though it has been deleted? On a side note, I know that backups play into this and that will be addressed later. Thanks everyone....
