Actually emptying the trash every day doesn't sound like a bad idea at all IMHO. Just need to explain to the users that it will allow for "oops, hit the wrong key" but is not intended to be just another folder to keep forever.

Not my call. This came from the corner office and has been in place in all previous versions. I know it won't take the zero value in the GUI. Haven't looked for the equivalent in Powershell, but have a feeling it will bomb there too. -Paul (Der Über Briefträger Nazi) -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

Do you really hate your users so much? :-P (Sorry, I don't know. I've never tested at zero. Seems pretty draconian.) Regards, Michael B.

I'm working with our Exchange 2010 pre-SP1 server and want the Managed Default Folders to purge everything nightly from the Deleted Items folder. When I try to enter zero for the "Length of retention period" it complains and says it has to be a value between 1-24855. Is there a way to make this zero days so that everything is purged? If not, is there a workaround? -Paul --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
