The only way I don't is if the supervisor wants the mail to be forwarded for a period. We do this for our sales guys that leave or get fired, for obvious reasons. When the supervisor is happy we archive necessary email to PST and blow the mailbox away. -----Original Message----- From: Martin Reilly [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 19, 2001 6:37 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Employee Departures I don't. They left. Why should their email still be deliverable? I appreciate that this model would not work for a lot of companies - probably most of them, in fact. The way we work with our customers though, it works well for us. -----Original Message----- From: Lefkovics, William [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 19 December 2001 23:22 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Employee Departures How do you handle inbound residual email to that SMTP address?

However, getting supervisors to deal with the cleanup was always a problem. So we export to a PST, and copy that PST to the supervisors personal share where it occupies part of their fileshare quota. Extension to quota? Hahahahahaha!!! <G> -----Original Message----- From: Lefkovics, William [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 19 December 2001 22:59 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Employee Departures Employee leaves. Mailbox access is granted to supervisor. After 30 days mailbox is either: 1) deleted 2) balance archived to .pst SMTP alias is then added to 'ex-employee' mailbox list of aliases for stray emails.

I'd love to be able to do that. Hopefully our policy will end up like that.

I just finished an audit of the size of the disk usage on my exchange server and noticed that there are at least 2GB of old users who have left the company. William L.
