Unsolved O365 Archive Retention Policy
-
PSTs should not be part of the archive retention. Exchange does not control PSTs. PSTs are outside of Exchange central management - one of the many reasons that they are often recommended against.
-
So maybe I am asking it wrong. How exactly do the emails move to archiving and out of the main mailbox?

We've always done it manually
-
Is this what you are looking for?

Unless I'm missing something.

Thank you! I think that is what I am looking for. I am so out of practice doing this stuff.....
-
When I moved to Exchange Online, I copied many years of messages from my IMAP server to Exchange. Suddenly they were gone! Here it archived everything 2 years or older to the In-Place archive.

Yes I believe it should be automatic but hopefully that link will get me where I need to go

He starts next week.

So you mention an OST file as well - does this user have a 50 GB OST locally also? DAMN!

Yeah it is a bit excessive. But he is the President of the company so who knows......
-
But and OST?
I guess they don't corrupt as badly as they used to with PSTs. but still going fully online with OWA would be seemingly desirable. but what do I know
-
Maybe he is like me and doesn't like OWA.
AND BEGIN...

What is wrong with OWA?
I just like my older version of Outlook better.
Nothing wrong with it, per se.
-
OWA is a universally working platform, but the interface feels foreign to me.
I only use it if I must, which isn't often.
-
As far as webmail is concerned, I like it.
-
In reality not many users actually use any features that aren't in OWA.
-
Yeah we did a whole thread about this. My bad.
