There is often little need to keep unread messages on the server indefinitely. Check the following...

1Goto User ➤ Mailbox Classes, and look for the mailbox class with the most users, eg: Regular User: Mailbox Classes

2Edit that mailbox class by clicking it, scroll down to Usage Controls, and ensure that 'Delete unread messages' is checked and set to 45 days (or less). Do the same for 'Unread Broadcast Messages'. This prevents unread messages from remaining indefinitely. Usage Controls
