Exchange- Autodelete E-mail

Locked

Last night our Exchange server went south. Although we do not know what corrupted the database we know that we would be able to restore or fix the problem faster if the database was smaller.

A couple of my portfolio managers get about 100 email aday from brokers. What is the best way to Automatically delete email if it is lets say 20 days old?

I would like to do this from the server side. We are running exchange 5.5

With Ex5.5 SP3 and higher, MS includes on the CD version the mailbox manager. This is an installable and configurable service that runs on the Exchange Server. Here is a great write up about the tool from Exchange Administrator Mag:

*Anyone know if TechRepublic will ever fix this?
