Dhiraj - No offense, but I suggest you spend some time in the Exchange help files and with google or bing. I've provided you with the solution, but you need to flesh it out for your environment.

Because I think in exchange mailbox properties there is a option for Deleted Item retention which can be set to 0 for all Deleted item deletion. Will it work this way. Dhiraj From: Michael B.

Now I want to clear all mails which was forwarded from this mailbox from inbox / sent items. (If I will use redirect in outlook rule, it will be in Source Mailbox inbox & if I will use forward in Source mailbox, it will be sent item) so that source mailbox can't run out of storage space. I thought to use Exmerge on server in a batch file to clear all content of this mailbox but unable to get how to run Exmerge (in a batch file) to clear items on a particular mailbox. I think if will use Exmerge to clear mailbox items, it will cut into PST. Is there anyway to permanently delete them without cut them into PST. Kindly correct me if I have a wrong assumption. Also let me know what else could be the way to do it.
