Abstract
Architecture for retention policy tagging of data items such as messages for expiring data items without data reorganization. Retention policy tags can be applied to items, conversations, folders, and/or distribution lists, for example. Retention policy tags provide a way to manage (e.g., expire) data items such as email, for example, and reduce the corporate burden for compliance in documents of all types. Tags can be applied to data items individually and in-place, and do not impose changes to the natural workflow of the user. The use of expiry policy tags provides a solution by removing the pain point around physically moving messages to an unfamiliar folder hierarchy.
