Hi All,
I'm trying to understand the meaning of the "Expire after" option inside a
mail.
I've activated this option and send it to another user (both domain users,
Office 2003 + Exchange Server) but nothing happened. What should be the
reaction? Should the mail disappear? change status?
Thanks a lot in advance

The expiration date is a another date field like Received, Created,
Modified, etc. You can configure Outlook to mark messages as "expired" and
then AutoArchive can be configured to remove those messages. Until they are
removed, by default Outlook will display them with an overstrike one they
reach the expiration date.

What can I do if the strike through doesn't show after the expire
time has come?

Perhaps your autoformatting isn't configured to show the overstrike. CLick
View>Current View>Customize Current View>Automatic Formatting. Is "Expired
e-mail" checked?
