The purpose of stubbing is that the user can access all of his original e-mails at any time via his Outlook and that the Exchange Server no longer has to keep the entire amount of memory available.
A “stubbed” mail is much smaller in terms of storage capacity than the original and the e-mail is only completely restored in the Exchange Server if necessary.
Stubbing or shrinking is time-controlled. As the administrator, you determine the age at which a mail is shrunk in the Exchange Server and replaced by a “stub”. In this way, new e-mails can still be kept completely in the Exchange for a certain period of time, depending on the available storage volume. Since only all attachments are removed during stubbing, which usually make up up to 80% of the memory requirement, in addition to the NetOrchestra MA mail search integrated in Outlook, the previous Outlook search for stubbed e-mails is still possible. A slimmed-down mail looks as usual to the user: subject, date, mail addresses and body are retained in the Outlook folders. However, the size is reduced to a few KB.

FAQ: Exchange Archiving
Exchange archiving refers to the storage of electronic messages and other data sent and received through Microsoft Exchange Server, a widely used email server solution. Archiving is used to secure important business information and comply with legal requirements.
