Dhiraj, The policy you're configuring is for deleted item retention. This configures the amount of time that deleted items will be available for restore using deleted item recovery.
I highly recommend you take Michael's advice and read the help files and do a little searching on mailbox manager. Recipient policies can be filtered to be applied pretty granularly. It sounds like you just need to filter the policy to include mailboxes on specific servers. - Sean On Wed, Dec 29, 2010 at 8:20 AM, Haritwal, Dhiraj < dhiraj.harit...@ap.sony.com> wrote: > I already checked that kb.
