Exchange Server 2010 and Archive Folders
by Michael B. Smith, MCSE/Exchange MVP
In Exchange Server 2010, Microsoft has deprecated “Managed Folders” and replaced those with “Retention Policies”. Unfortunately, at Release-To-Manufacturing (RTM, that is – when Exchange Server 2010 originally shipped), you cannot control Retention Policies via the Exchange Management Console (in other words, while using a GUI tool) and when attempting to control Retention Policies via the Exchange Management Shell (that is, while using a CLI – command-line interface) you could not specify specific policies for specific message types (this was a bug in the RTM version of Exchange Server 2010 and has since been corrected). Service Pack 1 for Exchange Server 2010 will allow the Exchange administrator to create, delete, and modify Retention Policies (and their associated Retention Tags) from within the Exchange Management Console.
Outlook 2010 Contact Activities
An Outlook user had this question: "After
upgrading to Outlook 2010 the contact activities
list shows only e-mail no matter what is selected
in the Show: dialog box. This showed all linked
activities in 2007. Is there a setting I am
missing?"
If you are using the same profile and *.pst and
didn't import, Activities will only be listed by
item. Activities' "All Items" lists all items
that were mailed - meeting and task requests
listed there are from mail folders (usually the
Sent folder), not your Tasks folder and Calendar.
Exchange Quick Tip: Block Outbound Read Receipts?
An administrator asked: "We want to stop read
receipts from going outside our organization.
Will the Global setting for Internet message
formats option of "Allow delivery reports" do
this?"
Yes, that option will allow you to control read
receipts to remote domains. "Allow delivery
reports" applies to read receipts to remote
domains. You'll want to leave the option
deselected.
"Allow non-delivery reports" applies to NDRs. If you want to allow NDRs to
be sent to remote domains, you'll need to select this option. Deselect this
option if you don't want to send NDRs.
