Journaling

[Edu-IT]

How do you go about journaling your Exchange 2007 emails? I'm thinking that on the last day of each month I can login to the journaling account and then archive the emails otherwise the mailbox is going to become large very quickly, will that comply with everything?

We did what you suggested but everyday i put the messages into a folder named after the date of the day then exported them at the end of the month.

You could also use the managed content settings in Exchange 2007. Also if your users dont delete their deleted items but you want to force this to happen say every 120 days etc you can do this by creating managed content settings.
