The following mailbox settings are available for a mailbox user.
Messaging Records Management
Select this setting, and then click Properties to open the Messaging Records Management dialog box. Use this dialog box to configure the following MRM options for a mailbox user:Managed folder mailbox policy Managed folder mailbox policies contain one or more managed folder settings for your Exchange organization. Assigning a managed folder mailbox policy to the mailbox will enable MRM for the mailbox. MRM helps you to:
Reduce the risks that are associated with e-mail and other communications by making it easier to keep what is needed to comply with company policy, government regulations, or legal needs.
Remove content that has no legal or business value.
Suspend expiration of items from this mailbox You can specify a time period to suspend the expiration of items from the mailbox. This allows you to temporarily stop MRM processing on the mailbox without removing the assigned managed folder mailbox policy.
