Policy
Keep Search Folders in Exchange online
Microsoft Office
Policy overview
Key metadata and intent for this policy.
This policy setting allows you to specify the number of days to keep a Search Folder active when running in online mode. After a Search Folder has not been accessed for the specified number of days, it becomes dormant and no longer remains up-to-date with current contents of folders (viewing the Search Folder makes it active again and restarts the timer). If you enable this policy setting, you may specify the number of days to keep a Search Folder active when running in online mode. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, then Search Folders always remain dormant.
