Microsoft Information Governance and Records Management AMA

Hi Dan, there are two places we recommend using Exchange MRM policies:

• An archive policy for archive mailboxes to automatically move emails from a user's primary mailbox to their archive mailbox after a specified period of time. An archive policy (with any settings) can be used in conjunction with a Microsoft 365 retention policy that applies to a user's primary and archive mailbox.

• Retention policies applied by an admin to specific folders within a mailbox. A Microsoft 365 retention policy applies to all folders in the mailbox. However, an admin can configure different retention settings by using retention labels that a user can apply to folders in Outlook as a default retention label.

Currently, we don't have plans to replace this functionality in the compliance center.
