What is the retention time for Jabber IM?

[Debra Chittick]

What is the retention time for IM messages in Jabber (MAC and Windows)?  Is there a way to set this to a specific amount of days so that I can age out older IMs?

Thank you,

Debbie

Debbie,

According to a Jabber Product Manager, "There is currently no age (time) limit applied) –rather the messages roll over after 100 messages."

I hope the helps address your question.

Hi Kelly,

That is helpful.  Is that per IM with one person or IMs over all?  Can you tell me if there is documentation that I can use as reference?

Thank you,

Debbie

Hi Kelly,

I still need documentation on IM history.  Is there a doc that you could point me too?

Thank you,
