What is an Online Archive mailbox?

Mailbox items that have been archived by DePaul's Automatic Archive and Deletion Policy, can be found in your Online Archive mailbox.

• The Online Archive uses the same folder structure as it's associated primary mailbox.
• When an item is automatically moved to your Online Archive, it moves into a folder of the same name/structure as its original location.
• Archiving will only create new folders:
  
  • It will not remove a folder from the Online Archive if a folder is removed from the primary mailbox.
  • If a folder in the primary mailbox is moved, a new folder will be created in the Online Archive. This can result in multiple folders of the same name in different locations in the folder structure.
• Deleting items from your Online Archive will place them into the Deleted Items folder located within your Online Archive mailbox.
