I have noticed that my inbox doesnt save messages that a certain number of days old. I was looking for an email that was several months old and i cant find it. does the workspace email delete messages automatically? I am only using about 4% of my storage space. is there any way to reclaim these messages? Can I change how long the messages are kept or archive them?

@gmcoombs

It sounds like you have one or more folders that are set to auto purge. The following article will walk you through viewing/editing these settings.

Deleting and Purging Email Messages

We do backups nightly, and these records are kept for 30 days. You can contact our Support Team directly to request a restore.

Hi Jason,

This recently happened to me and my purge settings have been sent to “never”. I lost year’s worth of information as well as contracts that will cost me thousands of dollars not only in lost work, but now in many work hours. I paid for an unlimited account for a reason and now I only have emails dating back to May 28, 2012 (it is July 18th) PLEASE ADVISE as this putting my business at risk and costing me and my family quite a bit of money.

I just noticed the same thing today. I went to get a contract that I saved last year and all emails on that folder were gone

As suggested, were you able to contact our Support Team directly and have the email account restored?
