While this saves bandwidth and storage for individual user mailboxes, it is detrimental for functional mailboxes (e.g., info@ , support@ , or Archive mailboxes). These mailboxes often require a full history of correspondence to be immediately accessible to team members. Previously, admins had to manually adjust the slider via OWA or Outlook after the fact, leading to user downtime and sync delays. disablesyncsliderforsharedmailbox
