Mailbox Management not deleting email
I've got mailbox management set up and working ok. Filters are all ok etc.
I've tested it and can get it to delete/move email from deleted items etc.
However, when it comes to a custom folder 'SPAM' on the same level as 'Inbox' etc it refuses to delete all the email. I've run this on all mailboxes and it has got rid of about 3 messages from 1 mailbox. The rest (hunderds of) it leaves where they are. Had full logging on but shed no light.
Help?

Thanks for your post. I've tried this on your advice, it has deleted a few more emails (26) but still have hundreds left? I've no mail type exclusions or anything!?

Just for info. I gave up on exchange's mailbox management. I stopped services that may be interfereing- cloudmark, grouphield, vshield, blackberry etc. Ran Exmerge to purge spam and the used eseutil to defrag the database. Worked like a charm. I then scheduled exmerge to run the purge on spam every week (no need to stop services either) and it's been fine since.
