After you create the Exchange user mailbox plan, you can configure the advanced options.
Note: For the user mailbox plans created in Command Center, the user has to manually exclude the Junk Email folder (with the appropriate naming convention used in their Exchange version) in the corresponding Archiving and Cleanup policy's Filters tab from the CommCell Console, so that the folder is excluded from Archive/Cleanup job.

After Archiving
Use the options in this section to define whether messages are stubbed, and which messages are cleaned up based on their age and size.
Replace all messages with a stub
When this option is selected, after the messages are archived, attachments are removed from the messages on the Exchange server and a stub is created. End users cannot recall archived messages that are not stubbed.
Delete all messages
When this option is selected, messages are deleted from the Exchange server after they are archived, but they are not replaced by a stub. End users cannot recall the archived messages.
Add a recall link to stub body
When the check box is selected, a link is added to the email message so that users can recall the message from an email client.
Leave message body in the stub
When the check box is selected, the message body is left in the stubbed message. When the check box is cleared, the message body is not left in the stubbed message.
Truncate body to n bytes
You can limit the size of the stubbed message based on the message body length. In this case, the body of the message is kept when it is less than or equal to the value that you define.
Two bytes equals one character. For example, if you enter 500 bytes, the message body in the stub is limited to a maximum of 250 characters (including spaces).
Cleanup messages older than n days
Messages that are older than the specified number of days (based on the received time) are stubbed or deleted. We recommend that you include messages older than 60 days.
