asked on

Outlook Online scheduled deletion 24 hours

Hotmail email accounts.

We have ipads that have an associated hotmail account, these are used for meetings and meeting info is sent directly to the associated iPad email account.

What I want is some information where I can set up a rule to completely clean the inbox and delete all email from it on a 24 hour basis. Is this possible? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

John

Hi John,

You can configured a rule to autoarchive. Right click folder, Properties and you can set up to permanently delete items older than1 day.

Check this article: https://www.slipstick.com/outlook/rules/create-rule-to-expire-mail-after-a-number-of-days/

Hi John,

So if you have the outlook online free. You have two options: archive or sweep as you prefered.

I was testing it allows you to clean up emails older than 10 days.

Thanks again, was looking for a bit more granularity. This is the rule I am after.

All messages to the user --> If mail over 24 hours old --> delete

Thanks

John
