Subject: Setting Retention Period

Question
My company is moving to Lotus Notes. IT has set a default retension period of 45 days. I can manually set the retention to by longer, but you can only change one email at a time. I'd like to find a script that would automatically change the retention date on all emails as they are received.

Ideas?

Answer
Hi,

If you want to set a retention period as the mail come in, then you will need to write a lotus script agent (which will run after the mail arrives) in the mail box.

You also should be a notes programmer with the designer client to write and enable the agent.

But writing custom agents in mail box is not recommended.

Can you also let me know how your IT is setting the default retention period?

Thanks and regards.

Paski
