With alot of companies this isn't acceptable. I for one have to keep the account around until I do the month end backup. Just in case for some reason they need to access the former employees mailbox after they are gone it is right there. Makes it alot easier on the nerves. -----Original Message----- From: Ray Zorz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2002 9:34 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Hidden accounts still getting mail? oh. My normal plan was to forward e-mails to supervisor or replacement for awhile, remove from GAL and all DL's. Eventually I nuked the mailbox. -----Original Message----- From: Boswell Tim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2002 6:40 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Hidden accounts still getting mail? Dreaded company policy - all mailboxes must be retained for one calendar month after the termination date. -----Original Message----- From: Ray Zorz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 08 January 2002 13:37 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Hidden accounts still getting mail? Why not just delete the mailbox? -----Original Message----- From: JENSEN, TIMOTHY C (AIT) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, January 08, 2002 5:42 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Hidden accounts still getting mail? Here is what I do to "disable" a mailbox: 1) Remove NT account and any other accounts on permissions tab 2) Remove all SMTP addresses 3) Remove mailbox from all DL's 4) Hide from address book 5) Set delivery restrictions on mailbox to only allow an admin mailbox to send to it. Hope this helps.

The NT account is deleted, I wasn't aware that exchange accounts could be disabled - how is this done? All email addresses have been deleted. I've since found out that it's only company-wide mails from d-lists that are arriving there. -----Original Message----- From: Snook, Kevin S (ITD) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 08 January 2002 11:52 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Hidden accounts still getting mail? Are these replies? Is the mailbox actually DISABLED? Have you simply deleted the X.400 and SMTP addresses? Kevin -----Original Message----- From: Boswell Tim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 08 January 2002 11:04 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Hidden accounts still getting mail? Here's a weird one.... We have a policy here that when a user leaves, the mailbox is hidden and all mail addresses deleted for 30 days before the box itself is deleted. I've just had a call from one user, who has delegate access to a users mailbox. The user left at the beginning of December, and all mail addresses were deleted around the 10th. This user is reporting that the mailbox is still receiving mail - a clear month after all email addresses were deleted! Can anyone give any input as to how an account with no associated addresses can still receive mail?
