Hi,

I have something that really puzzles me.

We use a archiving system for our Exchange 2000 machines. In this archiving
system I have set a policy to archive a message and delete the attachments
from a message when the message is bigger than 200K.

This works just fine for internal mail. But external mail is archived and
the attachement is not taken from the message. When I retrieve the message
from the archiving system and have it restub after e.g. an hour, the
attachment is deleted from the message.

Is there a difference between external mail and internal mail once it have
arrived in your mailbox? According to IBM, supplier of the archiving system,
there should not be a difference.

Thanks for your reply.

Frank
