Email Archive Enablement - Start Date: Dec. 26, 2024

Minnesota State Announcement

In an effort to manage storage across the Minnesota State M365 Shared Tenant, beginning on December 26th, 2024 all M365 accounts will have E-mail In-Place Archiving enabled. Due to recent adjustments by Microsoft regarding storage limits for M365 education customers, Minnesota State will be enabling Email In-Place Archiving for all accounts. 

  • Email In-Place Archiving will continuously move all email items older than 9 months (280 days) to a folder within the user's mailbox, labeled “In-Place Archive - starid@minnstate.edu”.
  • This change is expected to have minimal impact on users.   
  • Any users returning to the organization and accessing Outlook, will find their older items by scrolling down to the “In-Place Archive - starid@minnstate.edu” folder.
  • Any previously created subfolder structure will be respected; for additional details, refer to the guide included below.
