Remove folder from Exchange

Now that we created a new MyArchive (different name than the first) folder and had users move their items, I'd like to remove the old MyArchive folder.  Is there a way to use EVPM to remove the old folder?  I know that I can use EVPM to change it to deleteable, but can I run something to remove it for them?

Sorry but no, EVPM cannot remove a folder.  Look into a powershell script:

Wow, another gotcha with Evault.  OK, well then I am going to have to try the powershell script or something.  This is getting worse by the day.  Thank you.

The links look good for doing this via EWS... And the other simple option is a bit of vbscript and CDO.

I have not used any of these.  So I guess I will take up some reading at this point.  Thanks.

are you the Exchange admin as well as the EV admin? if not, you might want to go to them for this.

I will be getting a hold of MS at this point.  Thank you for all the comments and suggestions.
