Email Archiving

Function

Email Archiving for Medical campus Exchange email accounts archives message attachments that are older than ninety days. These archived attachments do not count toward Inbox size limits, resulting in more space for messages and better performance for campus email.

Archived attachments can be downloaded or restored to the Inbox by double clicking the shortcutted attachment in messages.

Access

The Email Archiving system is accessible by anyone with a "med.miami.edu" email account. It requires you to log in with a Medical ID and associated password when you need to restore or download an archived attachment.  

Documentation

See Email Archiving: Detailed Instructions.

Support

Contact the Information Technology Help Desk.

Additional considerations

If you need to access archived attachments through Outlook Web Access (OWA) aka Webmail, make sure you select the option for "This is a private computer." The option for "a public or shared computer" does not allow for the download of any attachments in OWA.

System administration 

The Email Archiving system is managed by Medical Information Technology's Data Center Services group.
