Thanks for the information!<br />
<br />
Looks like I will be implementing journaling with archiving, to keep mailbox size down.<br />
<br />
The school I will implementing this has about 70+ employees. <br />
<br />
Appreciate any tips you can throw at me!<br />
<br />
Once again thanks Rancy!

With archiving you have an Option for &quot;Custom Managed Folders&quot; if you want to use.<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I've been asked by my company to setup mail archiving on one of our clients which is a school using Exchange 2010 &quot;archiving&quot; features.<br />
<br />
They require to archive e-mail for at least 7 years. (Like many organizations in the state of NJ)<br />
<br />
I was wondering if there is a way to archive e-mail instantly without interrupting the user's mailbox, meaning it will only copy the e-mails not move to an archive folder, so that the user can see the e-mail in their mailbox without having to go an archive folder.<br />
<br />
Not sure if this is possible but wanted to see what my options were.<br />
<br />
Also I read a bit about creating a journaling mailbox, what are the difference and would I have to use a combination of both.<br />
<br />
Thanks!

Mail Archiving in Exchange 2010 for Schools

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.

Email Servers

Computer data storage, often called storage or memory, is a technology consisting of computer components and recording media used to retain digital data. In addition to local storage devices like CD and DVD readers, hard drives and flash drives, solid state drives can hold enormous amounts of data in a very small device. Cloud services and other new forms of remote storage also add to the capacity of devices and their ability to access more data without building additional data storage into a device.
