The Importance of Managing GroupWise Archives

  1. GroupWise archiving is a process that will move your e-mail contents from your  main GroupWise to the network drive S:\Dept\Username\Mail 
  2. Since this is a network drive, the data stored here is automatically backed up to tape each night
  3. Archiving is important because it helps conserve space on the main GroupWise server, and keeps your active GroupWise mailbox smaller and more manageable
  4. Archiving is set up to run automatically based on the age of the e-mail items 
  5. Manual archiving can be done on individual e-mail items that do not correspond with the age criteria set on the automatic archiving setup
  6. IT Services highly recommends that you routinely clean out your main and archive Mailbox and Sent Items of unwanted e-mail messages, especially those that include attachments 
  7. Attachments, if needed, can be saved to a network drive, a CD or a flash drive
