Let me ask this then. Is the Inbox in the mailbox considered a separate folder from the Inbox in the Archive, or is it because the Inbox in the Archive is automatically created that "All other folders in the mailbox" somehow wouldn't apply to it?

I've set up a test user with the following retention tags/policies as a test: Tag Type Age limit for retention Action to be taken ----------- ---------------------------- ----------------------- Inbox 1 Move to Archive Personal Tag 1 Move to Archive Personal Tag 1 Permanently Delete Personal Tag 1 Delete and Allow Recovery Personal Tag 365 Delete and Allow Recovery Personal Tag 2 Move to Archive Personal Tag 2 Permanently Delete Personal Tag 2 Delete and Allow Recovery Personal Tag 3 Move to Archive Personal Tag 3 Permanently Delete Personal Tag 3 Delete and Allow Recovery Personal Tag 1095 Delete and Allow Recovery Personal Tag 30 Delete and Allow Recovery Personal Tag 1825 Delete and Allow Recovery All other folders in the mailbox 7 Permanently Delete Personal Tag 2555 Delete and Allow Recovery Everything seems to be working as I expected it to with the exception of the Inbox and the Inbox in the Archive mailbox. On the Inbox policy tab the Folder Policy pull-down is grayed out and says "Use Parent Folder Policy", and under it the policy has my "All other folders in the mailbox - 7day - Permanently Delete" policy. The Online Archive section beneath that says to move items to the Archive when older than 1 day. On the Archive mailbox and the Inbox folder there the policy pull-down says "Use Parent Folder Policy", and under that it says "All other folders in the mailbox - 7day - Permanently Delete" policy. So I'm seeing items in the Inbox and subfolder within not being moved to Archive until after 7 days and the items in the Archive Inbox and subfolders don't appear to be getting deleted at all. The personal tags that I have assigned to other folders I created seem to be working as I expected. Is there something I'm missing? -Paul --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist
