Dear all, I'm not too sure how to proceed with this, but I am pretty sure it can be done. I have a requirement to create a new mailbox where any item in that mailbox can never be more then xx months old, i.e. delete all items if they get to xx months old. What's the best way to go about it?

It's Working As Intended I'm afraid to say. The OAB is only updated server side every 24 hours or so and then the client has to fetch the changes and update its cached copy, which could be another 12-24 hours. That explanation is extremely simple, but the upshot is that you could be waiting up

DB Portability between Rollup version

Hi all One of our mailbox servers (Exchange 2007 SP1 Rollup 6) has a suspected hardware fault and we were planning to use database portability to mount the databases on a standby server. The live server is running RU6, but the standby is at RU7. I figured since we're going to RU7 soon anyway,
