Delete Script for email >30 & last logon > 60 days

[lance59]

Looking for a script for Exchange 2007 SP1, that will delete email from a users inbox that is older then 30 days if the user has not logged on in the last 60 days.

TIA

I don't think you will find such a thing very easily. Essentially you first need to check for the users that have not logged on in 60 days. That is not that big of a deal, however the PowerShell commands to do the rest will be very troublesome for you. This is essentially the same as doing an ExMerge and the requirements for PowerShell are the same as for ExMerge, you will need to use a 32 bit client that has the Exchange 2007 tools loaded.

I hope you find this post helpful.

Mark

But that won't be based on logon age. And, they require an enterprise user CAL for Exchange.
