Try to keep my email under control. There are retention profiles that can be assigned to folders that have different time limits, 1 week, 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, etc. I only have a couple of folders for keeping files indefinately, the rest automatical delete within 6 months at the longest. Have an alerts folder that deletes after a week. I have rules that shuffle the alerts I don't deal with into that folder and mark as read. I rarely if ever just use the default delete button. Most stuff I move to my Trash Mo folder that deletes items after a Month.

Just did an export to see and have 1.3GB pst.

Oh, we do have litigation hold set an some users. Even after they delete messages it puts the messages in an archive they never see that can be accessed with litigation search privileges.
I don't know why we do it. Because we are an S Corp we are not required to keep anyone's email. And are only having me secretly archive selected individuals.
