We have a process set up on Exchange Server 2003 which allows us to
define type of folders to delete and how often to delete and we even
receive a mail once done. This process does not require a client open.
The process is through the Microsoft Exchange Server Mailbox Manager,
and we have set up a script that implements the deletion on all
mailboxes that have a Description "to delete".
I am not well versed in the technicalities of this process, but this
should be enough to get an Exchange Systems Manager to enable this. Our
Consultant did it in all of 10 minutes.
Hope this helps

Subject: [mso] Outlook 2003 rules question - on Exchange

I have a client that has a website with an email address on it that gets
a lot of inbound mail, all of which needs to be automatically deleted,
since the box is unmonitored.  I wanted to set up a rule in Outlook to
permanently delete all the inbound mail, but it ends up being a
client-only rule, so it only runs when Outlook is running, and that's
not possible since no one is ever logged on as that user.  Then I wanted
to set up a rule to just delete the emails, and find some way to
periodically empty out the Deleted Items without having to have Outlook
running.  Does anyone on an Exchange Server know if this is possible?

Thanks,
Elise
