Mailbox cleanup service for executives on Exchange Online
Bulk email cleanup service for executives' full Exchange Online mailboxes.
Why it can work
- Full mailboxes block sending and receiving for executives.
- Bulk thinning avoids manual deletion by reluctant users.
- Oversized Outlook folders slow desktop clients badly.
Watch out
- Users may resist deleting email they consider important.
- Bulk deletion risks removing records needed later.

The job to be done
Clear bloated executive mailboxes without deleting everything
When executive mailboxes and Outlook folders keep filling and slowing or breaking mail, IT admins need to thin out old email in bulk, so they can keep executives sending and receiving reliably.
Pain proof
3 complaints from 1 community
An executive's Outlook has 12,000 folders and 90,000 emails, causing the desktop client to spike CPU every few minutes and making the machine nearly unusable.
Executives keep hitting full mailboxes in Exchange Online even after adding Plan 2 and in-place archive.
Users in a sub-50 person company hoard email until mailboxes and OST files break send and receive, and refuse to delete anything.
