Modified vs. Archived date

[iwltgsfs]

I am implementing EV 8 and would like to know the difference between modified date vs. archived date.  If i choose modified date, will the retention policy pick up on its actual date and get rid of the message from the archive.  For instance, if I add a new user to be archived and he has a message from 1999.  If a retention policy was set to delete anything older than 5 years, after archiving, would that message be deleted?  hoping so...

Hi,

Yes, that's correct so effectively EV will take the received date, or sent date of the item to determine how old it is and so potentially delete it on the next expiry run.
