Licensing Need in O365 for email retention
Hello Everyone, just a quick question as I seem to be finding conflicting information. What I am trying to do is when our company has a term employee we want to keep their e-mail box for 3 months. ...
- Shared mailboxes still require a proper license to be assigned for retention processing, refer to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/servicedescriptions/microsoft-365-service-descriptions/microsoft-365-tenantlevel-services-licensing-guidance/microsoft-365-security-compliance-licensing-guidance#microsoft-purview-data-lifecycle-management
I'd recommend using Inactive mailboxes instead, as they allow you to free up the license: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/compliance/create-and-manage-inactive-mailboxes?view=o365-worldwide
