Managing Email Retention in Exchange Online
- Jun 23, 2020
The Information Governance retention policies in the Security and Compliance Center are emerging as Microsoft's default recommendation over things like in-place holds and even ediscovery cases. However, archiving still relies on those older MRM retention policies in Exchange Online.
Should Microsoft deprecate this function in the Exchange Admin Center, then they will need to add the option into the SCC somehow I would imagine. For the time being though, there is a halfway house.

- David LevineJun 29, 2020Brass ContributorThanks for the reply; I understand it better now; I basically removed any "retention" type tags from the MRM, leaving only archiving options. So, I can use labels and label policies to manage retention, and MRM to manage archiving.
Thanks!
