Q: We have some company emails which have Office 365 E1 license with 50 GB space. Because no-one real use these emails (they are maybe for website send or receive emails). Can we archive those mailboxes so that it never out of the spaces?
A: Yes, if we enable archive, “Items stored in the archive mailbox don’t count toward the user’s mailbox storage quota. An archive mailbox has its own archive quota and archive warning quota”.
To enable Archive on Office 365, please follow these steps.
- Login Office 365 as admin.
- Go to Admin Center.
- Navigate to recipients>mailboxes, double click the username.
- Click on mailbox features or Others
5. Click Manage mailbox archive under Mailbox archive.
6. Turn on archive.
