• Applied automatically to a specific folder: Select this option to create a retention policy tag (RPT) for a default folder such as Inbox or Deleted Items.
• Applied by users to items and folders (Personal): Select this option to create personal tags. These tags allow Outlook and Outlook on the web (formerly known as Outlook Web App) users to apply archive or deletion settings to a message or folders that are different from the settings applied to the parent folder or the entire mailbox.

• Retention action: Select one of the following actions to be taken after the item reaches its retention period:
• Delete and Allow Recovery: Select this action to delete items but allow users to recover them using the Recover Deleted Items option in Outlook or Outlook on the web. Items are retained until the deleted item retention period configured for the mailbox database or the mailbox user is reached.
• Permanently Delete: Select this option to permanently delete the item from the mailbox database.
• Move to Archive: This action is available only if you're creating a DPT or a personal tag. Select this action to move items to the user's In-Place Archive.
• Retention period: Select one of the following options:
• Never: Select this option to specify that items should never be deleted or moved to the archive.
• When the item reaches the following age (in days): Select this option and specify the number of days to retain items before they're moved or deleted. The retention age for all supported items except Calendar and Tasks is calculated from the date an item is received or created.
