Shift+Del will still send an item to the dumpster. Shift+Del will by pass the deleted items folder. Each folder has a dumpster, not just the deleted items. If you use Shift+Del to delete an item, it will go into the dumpster where you deleted the item. To recover this item, you have to use the DumpsterAlwaysOn registry key. This allows you to see the deleted items for any folder. I have found this key to be very helpful when troubleshooting users who have "lost" thier mail because they have POPed it off to another machine. Denny

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?

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.
