Does export to mailbox wizard change modified date?

Does the export to mailbox wizard change the modified date?

Because of difficulties (possibly network, possibly exchange, possibly AD) we are doing a clean install of EV11 rather than upgrading EV10. We only have a few mailboxes being archived.

We want to move the archived items back into the mailbox. The obvious choice is the export to mailbox wizard. When an archived item is restored using the add-in the modified date is changed to stop it being archived immediately. We want to check that the export wizard doesn’t do the same thing. (it’ll affect UAT testing).

  • Yes. Though, there is no 'movement' as such. The item is copied.

  • Thanks Rob. Just to check, so I can explain this to the users:

    • The “archived date” is set when the mail is moved into the archive
    • The “restore date” is set when the mail is moved back to the mailbox, either by restore or export.

    These dates can be masked by registry settings as you advised

  • The restored item will have several EV properties on them, which will be examined by the archiving task... and will prevent archiving until the time period for your policy has expired based on those dates. Or you can set the registry key: http://thingsilearnedtoday.net/2015/01/02/97460/ and https://www.veritas.com/support/en_US/article.TECH76532
