Image 2 user level settings- For the Auto Mail Deletion after (in days) property, specify the number of days after which the mail should be automatically deleted. If the property value set to zero, the message expiry will be disabled and messages will not be deleted.
- Example: If you want to maintain only 30 days' emails on SkyConnect, you can set the value to 30 at the user level. This configuration will automatically check for emails older than 30 days on a daily basis and start deleting them from the backend.
Note: Use this feature carefully, as mails once deleted cannot be retrieved.
