What about deleted item retention? Even if it wasn't switched on when
the user deleted the folders, putting it on before the restore might
catch the deletion run by the logs.

Some of our users use the Delete key - yours truly included - but some of them want
the spam to analysed further and blocked in the future. I guess my question was
phrased badly, so I'll rephrase it:
How do you handle users who receive spam that want that source of spam blocked on the
filters?
That's what I figured a corrupt message somewhere? I killed all the rules
but, didn't try the /clean (freebusy) switches only because we shut that
function off for users on Office. But will try it and others anyhow . Thanks

That's not entirely true.
What you need is non-whitespace + 10%(+/- a bit), not current database +

The defrag process creates a new database and copies the data from the old

There are command switches that enable you to redirect it to another drive.
