That would also be my suggestion.
Configure the Mailbox policy to archive items older than 999 Years. Configure the other tabs according to your wishes. Sync the mailboxes. Let the task run according to schedule.
Select Run Now and then "Shortcut Processing" . It will only do shortcut operations. the guides describe it. This is an unofficial one but it should do for our purposes: http://systemmanager.ru/ev_help.en/extfile/admin_console_help/idd_schedule_run_now_dlg_ex.htm
Thanks - my question was more around the point if there's an automated way to run that on a schedule as opposed to just the "Run Now" manual option.
I do not recall a way. Have you considered managing this via policy (set a really long arching date or never archive items larger than 1 KB or something)?
