Message retention is not enabled until you designate the users whose messages you want retained by 
the application. You can designate users at the domain level, post office level, or individual user 
level.

1

In ConsoleOne, right-click the domain, post office, or user for which you want to enable 
message retention, click 

GroupWise Utilities > Client Options

 to display the GroupWise Client 

Options dialog box.

2

Click 

Environment

 to display the Environment Options dialog box, then click the 

Retention

 tab.

3

Turn on the 

Enable Message Retention Service

 setting.

4

If you want to lock the setting at this level, click the 

Lock

 button.

For example, if you lock the setting at the domain level, the setting cannot be changed for any 
post offices or users within the domain. If you lock the setting at the post office level, it cannot 
be changed individually for the post office’s users.
This setting does not display in the GroupWise client. Therefore, there is no lock available 
when editing this setting for individual users.

5

Click 

OK

 to save the changes.
