When you delete a mail contact, the Do not display in address lists option is enabled and the mail contact is no longer shown in address books.
As long as an account definition still applies to an identity, the identity retains the mail contact that was created by it. If the account definition assignment is removed, the mail contact created through this account definition, is deleted.
In the Manager, delete mail contacts that were not created using an account definition, via the result list or the menu bar. After you have confirmed the security prompt the mail contact is marked for deletion in One Identity Manager.
To delete a mail contact that is not managed using an account definition
-
In the Manager, select the Active Directory > Mail contacts category.
-
Select the mail contact in the result list.
-
Click in the result list.
- Confirm the security prompt with Yes.
Deferred deletion is taken into account if a mail contact is being deleted. You can use deferred deletion to specify how long the mail contacts remain in the database after deletion is triggered before they are finally removed. You can reenable the mail contacts up until deferred deletion runs.
If the QER | Person | User | DeleteOptions | ReapplyTemplatesOnRestore is set, the template is applied again when reenabling a mail contact marked for deletion that is managed through an account definition. This means that properties dependent on the IT operating data are automatically recreated according to the current configuration.
To restore a mail contact
-
In the Manager, select the Active Directory > Mail contacts category.
-
Select the mail contact in the result list.
-
Click in the result list.
Configuring deferred deletion
By default, mail contacts are finally deleted from the database after 30 days. During this period you have the option to reactivate the mail contacts. A restore is not possible once deferred deletion has expired.
In the Designer, you can set an alternative delay on the EX0MailContact table. For more information about configuring deferred deletion, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.
