Deleting Mailbox

[Yardyy]

Hi,

I have deleted several user accounts over the past month or so, which have had mailoxes. However, if i look at the First Storage Group Mailboxes, i can still see the mailboxes there, and the last login time etc. The deleted mail retention is set to 3 days, though these accounts were deleted over a month ago.

Question why are they still showing ?? and what can i do to remove them from the database.

Many thanks.

Many Thanks
Yardyy

From the SM, you have to go to the mailbox store, right click and run the cleanup agent. This will red flag the deleted mailboxes and you can then select and delete them.

Stop and restart the IS, or reboot the server.
