I have a scenario in which i have to delete messages of a particular interface directly after a retention period of 7 days. I should not archive the messages. And this should apply only to that interface and not the others.
If a message is not flagged for archiving and it is automatically flagged for deletion, will it be deleted automatically by SAP after the retention peiod is exceeded or do we have to schedule the delete job?
When a message is deleted we will not be able to view it in SXMB_MONI isnt it? What about messages that are archived?
And incase i maintain a retention period for deletion as 10 and archive retention period as 30, it makes no sense isnt it?
Because the message will be deleted by delete job before it becomes available for archival.

You need to schedule the jobs, please schedule below jobs
RSXMB_DELETE_ARCHIVED_MESSAGES Delete Archived XML Messages
RSXMB_DELETE_MESSAGES Delete XML Messages from the Persistency Layer marked for DEL

You will not be able to see both of them but you can retrive the arhived messages using 'Archived XML messages' option in SXMB_MONI transaction

YES, you are correct.
I request you go through my blog & wiki that covers the basics of this concept
