Description

Error Message

No errors are generated

Cause

The Journal Mailbox is just a mailbox like any other mailbox so the EVPM script will disable archiving of the Journal Inbox as well.

Resolution

This is expected behavior.

There are two options to prevent or correct this behavior.

1) Create a second EVPM script to zap the the Journaling mailbox and run it after running the original EVPM script followed by a synchronization of the journal mailbox

      So: run original script, run script to zap mailbox, synchronize journal mailbox

2) Include a system default filter set to default for the journal mailbox
