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 email...
Yes. But needs to be aware of information governance vs advanced information governance.
They simply asked about retention and deleted e-mails, don't need to know about advanced since it's covered in the basic :).
- Fair enough 🙂
- Having to ask users to manually add labels to documents doesn't help us at all.
I thank you to both of you for your profound help and I still seek a solution if there is one for E1.- You don't have to add labels to documents........ that's just part of the whole governance section, retention policies part of that which is automatic. To answer your question you can do retention policies with E1 which is what your asking.
Microsoft 365 F3/Business Premium, Office 365 E1/A1/F3, and standalone Exchange plans provide the rights for a user to benefit from manually applying non-record retention labels to mailbox data.
I think perhaps we are not on the same page or looking at different descriptions ?
However, even if that was automatic, while i applied a tenant wide retention policy, i was unable to recover emails from the Recoverable Items folder.
