moving away from EV 6.0 SP4

[Local_Admin]

We are currently running Enterprise Vault 6.0 SP4; however, our company has decided to move away from using the Vault.

Currently on our site we have the following settings applied:

- Users cannot delete items from their archives

- Business retention category (Retain Items Forever)

- Items older than 6 weeks are archived

- We have users with 1-10 years of mail in the vault

I would like to Export users archives; however, when I do so a number of items are restored that were deleted in the past. I have read through all of the documentation regarding Retention categories, and deleting shortcuts, but I am still not clear on how to go about this.

To summarize: I need to restore all items to their Microsoft Exchange mailbox; however, I do not want to restore previously deleted items, and I cannot lose any messages that were in their vault.

Any suggestions or tips would be greatly appreciated. I need to complete this task ASAP.

If users CAN'T delete items from their vault, the simply CAN'T.
I assume you are referring to deleted SHORTCUTS in a user's vault.

There is no standard way in EV you could achive what you want (restore only items who have valid shortcuts in mailbox).

If you're interested in a customized solution, we may could be able to assist you.
