This is what I get for replying after only 3 hours of sleep. <blushing> You are right. Managed folders and retention policies don't mix. My bad. </blushing>
Back to your original question, yes, I believe that is correct. -----Original Message----- From: Maglinger, Paul [mailto:pmaglin...@scvl.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 27, 2012 9:20 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Retention policy with no archive mailbox Okay, my turn to be confused. There are retention tags that can be added to the retention policies that allow delete, delete with recovery, or move to archive. -----Original Message----- From: Michael B.

Retention tags and policies -ne archive tags and policies. You can't assign a user a retention policy if they have an archive. You can't enable an archive if a user has a retention policy. -----Original Message----- From: Maglinger, Paul [mailto:pmaglin...@scvl.com] Sent: Tuesday, June 26, 2012 3:24 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Retention policy with no archive mailbox Working with retention tags and retention policies and was reading that if you disabled an archive and deleted the user of the mailbox then you can't connect to the archive unless you connect to the mailbox. After connecting to the mailbox and then to the archive it says that archiving will resume. Which brings me to this question. If you have a mailbox that doesn't have archiving enabled, yet the user goes into the ECP and selects the retention tags to use and then tries to use them, then it appears to me that the email will just sit there until the archiving is enabled.
