Orphaned Shortcut Report

All - we have email archiving deployed with a custom folder called "Business" which should retain all items "Forever". Unfortunately some of the custom scripting did not update the "Business" folder ...

    You will need to submit an Idea on this forum to get the functionality, or run a dtrace and parse it out but you don't want to do that, or write a util that reads the SavesetID of each message, in each folder of each mailbox that reconciles it to the database and then keeps count and outputs it at the end.

    But unfortunately i don't think there is any tool, native or 3rd party that will do what you want it to do.

Guys - thanks for the info. I sort of know this information but I had a more specific issue which I'm not sure its possible. Basically is there a way to identify "PER FOLDER" how many items have "Orphaned Shortcuts" without running some Dtrace? I have a Custom EVPM folder which should have a retention category of "Forever" but due to multiple issues some users retention was set to our regular policy of '3 years'.

Thus if I can get a reports which states something like

 

User1 -

    Forever Folder - 20 Orphaned shortcuts (I would need to address these)

     Inbox - 30 Orphaned shortcuts

User2 -

     Forever Folder - 0 Orphaned Shorcuts (working as expected)

     Inbox - 45 Orphaned Shortcuts

 

Thanks
