Hi @Sanjay

By default, the retention period of disabled mailboxes on each database in Exchange 2013 is 30 days.
It means disabled mailboxes which are older than 30 days will be removed automatically.

If you have changed the default setting and would like to manually delete the disabled mailboxes which are 90 days older.
You may use this command to first list all these disable mailboxes:

Get-MailboxDatabase | foreach {Get-MailboxStatistics -Database $_.DistinguishedName} | where {$_.DisconnectReason -eq "Disabled"} | where {$_.DisconnectDate -le (get-date).adddays(-90)} | fl DisplayName,Database,DisconnectDate  

And run this command to remove the disabled mailboxes:

Get-MailboxDatabase | foreach {Get-MailboxStatistics -Database $_.DistinguishedName} | where {$_.DisconnectReason -eq "Disabled"} | where {$_.DisconnectDate -le (get-date).adddays(-90)} | ForEach {Remove-StoreMailbox –Database $_.database –identity $_.mailboxguid –MailboxState Disabled}
