E1 - Retention policy, different answers from MS
Hi everyone,
Can someone confirm what retention policies are available to users of Office 365 E1 without purchasing other services?
Specifically, I would like to be able to recover deleted emails from mailboxes.
However, person A from MS says that if i set up retention policy in office 365 admin , this is all I need - though reports online say i need E3 for this to work or even E5.
Person B (from MS) says that there are no retention options for plan E1 without purchasing additional services.
Can someone give a clear answer as to whether there are any, any retention options available for E1 that i can take advantage of ? What options are available to me ?
I'm mainly concerned with emails, not files.

Thanks for that. I'm still unable to find out what retention options are available under E1 (for exchange online 1) if any.
Either that or a journaling solution.- See Information Governance section. E1 is included in this which includes retention labeling etc.
