  I've encountered that, too.

  I suspect these are the same people they put the warnings on plastic
bags for.  You know, about not to put them over your head.

We've had upper management folks that did that, particularly in the
groupwise days.  By policy we were supposed to keep stuff cleaned out, but
being "special", he had to have a special policy created. 

 

Then of course he moved to another facility, with a new post office, and
they were all gone.   My boss spent days trying to recover the damn things.

Keeping mail in the deleted items folder must be an honored tradition.  I
was once converting from ccmail (yes a long time ago) to exchange 5.5 and
the GM of the company had over 10k items in his deleted items folder.  I
asked him why and he said in case he needs them again.  Next time I run into
that I will use Kim's response.

Just ran across a user complaining that Outlook has been taking a long time
to open.  Investigation revealed he had 61 PST files and all were attached.
I've seen 4 or 5, but never 61!
