Query regarding "Retention Message" in NWA

[former_member338476]

Hi Experts,

We running PI 7.4 single stack for the last 5 months but we didn't configured Retention Message in NWA for Message expiration.

Now I want to configure "Message Retention" as 180 Days. If i configure "Message Retention" now as 180 days

1. is this period is applicable for all messages which are already processed or for currently processed Messgaes.?

2. The Delete background job can delete the messages from database after setting configuration for "Retention Message"?
