You need to enable journaling on the message store.

Follow these steps to enable Message Journaling:

1. In Exchange System Manager, click Servers.

2. Click Storage Group, right-click one of the mailbox stores listed, and then click Properties.

3. On the General tab, click to select the Archive all messages sent or received by mailboxes on this store check box, and then click Browse to choose an account for the archived messages.

You need to do this individually for each store object.

You should run this by legal first to ensure that they have no issues with this being performed.

A good overview article can be found on MsExchange Org's site:
