Everyone, We
are setting up an email deletion policy at my organization. I have tested
and understand how the recipient policy works and the entire email deletion
process works. One thing that is a little confusing is the fact that the email
deletion policy works off a hidden field for each item in a user’s
mailbox that I will call modified date field. Meaning if I copy a message
into my mailbox that has a received time of over 30 days and the email deletion
policy deletes anything it over 30 days the message does not get deleted.
I know this is because of the modified date field. What I want to know is
when does Exchange decide to change this date from the time it was created to a
later date. Is this based on a user moving a message to a new folder,
replying, and forwarding? I want to educate our help desk, users, etc. on
what will be deleted and when and I cannot find any documentation on the
internet that explains when and how the modified date is changed/updated.
TIA. Jeremy ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
