Please wait while the virtual machine loads. Once loaded, you may proceed to the lab section. This may take a few minutes, and the wait time will not be deducted from your overall test time.
When the Next button is available, click it to access the lab section. In this section, you will perform a set of tasks in a live environment. While most functionality will be available to you as it would be in a live environment, some functionality (e.g., copy and paste, ability to navigate to external websites) will not be possible by design.
Scoring is based on the outcome of performing the tasks stated in the lab. In other words, it doesn't matter how you accomplish the task, if you successfully perform it, you will earn credit for that task.
Labs are not timed separately, and this exam may have more than one lab that you must complete. You can use as much time as you would like to complete each lab. But, you should manage your time appropriately to ensure that you are able to complete the lab(s) and all other sections of the exam in the time provided.
Please note that once you submit your work by clicking the Next button within a lab, you will NOT be able to return to the lab.

2. Click the New retention policy link.
3. Enter a name for the policy (such as "Diego Siciliani Email Retention") and click Next.
4. In the retention period, enter 180 days and click Next.

6. Click the Choose recipients link for Exchange email.
7. Click the Choose recipients button to open a list of recipients.
8. Select Admin1 and click the Choose button then click the Done button.
9. Click Next.
10.Click the Create this policy button.
