Description

Managed content settings are settings that you apply to managed folders to control the lifespan of items in users' mailboxes. For more information about managed content settings, see Messaging Records Management.

Although the New-ManagedContentSettings cmdlet has the MessageClass parameter, the Set-ManagedContentSettings cmdlet doesn't. If you want to change the message type to which content settings apply, you must delete and then re-create the content settings. For more information about the MessageClass parameter, see New-ManagedContentSettings.

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this article lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you might not have access to some parameters if they aren't included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.

Examples

Example 1

Set-ManagedContentSettings -Identity MyManagedContentSettings -AddressForJournaling MySmtpAddress@contoso.com

This example specifies the address of the journaling recipient that's the destination of journaling operations.

Parameters

-AddressForJournaling

Applicable: Exchange Server 2010

The AddressForJournaling parameter specifies the journaling recipient where journaled messages are sent. You can use any value that uniquely identifies the recipient. For example:

  • Name
  • Alias
  • Distinguished name (DN)
  • Canonical DN
  • Email address
  • GUID

Parameter properties

Type:RecipientIdParameter
Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-AgeLimitForRetention

Applicable: Exchange Server 2010

The AgeLimitForRetention parameter specifies the age at which retention is enforced on an item. The age limit corresponds to the number of days from the date that the item was delivered or the date that an item was created if it wasn't delivered.

If this parameter isn't present and the RetentionEnabled parameter is set to $true, an error is returned.

Parameter properties

Type:EnhancedTimeSpan
Default value:None
Supports wildcards:False
DontShow:False

Parameter sets

(All)
Position:Named
Mandatory:False
Value from pipeline:False
Value from pipeline by property name:False
Value from remaining arguments:False

-Confirm

Applicable: Exchange Server 2010

The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.

  • Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax: -Confirm:$false.
  • Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.
