setting Message retention

[Sambooka]

Hi! I have a mailbox that I want messages deleted after 12 hours.
I have set the LCOS age limits as below. Messages I left yesterady are not getting deleted. Am I missing something?

Played message retention :12(hours)
Unplayed message retention :12(hours)
Urgent message retention :12(hours)
Cut-thru paging receipt retention :12(hours)
Receipt retention :12(hours)
Played fax retention :12(hours)
Unplayed fax retention :12(hours)
Urgent fax retention :12(hours)
Fax receipt retention :12(hours)
Absolute message retention :0(hours)

Thanks

I would set the Absolute to 12 hours and forget the rest.

Hmm I would think your settings would have worked as long as the messages were left after you made the changes to the LCOS ( and you assigned the LCOS to the mailbox you are using ). Wouldn't think a restart would be needed.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Seems ok now.. as long as it works I am happy. I did not set the absolute age limit.

I will play with it some more and see if I can nail down more precicely the aging and post the results

Thanks for yoru help

Some timers start when other expire so that 12 hours is not necessarily what you think it is.

Absolute retention is exactly what you think it is.
