Currently, it's on.  I'm not sure if business reasons will allow him to 
turn it off.

I can't think of a reason, and really I don't think it's a requirement, 
but he has plenty of users who have Sent folder and Trash folders that 
they hardly know they have - and one click on them shouldn't take the 
server down.  Perhaps an automated trash-cleaning solution is a simpler 
fix.  I'd prefer to be able to chase down an actual reason though, at 
least.  Even if it's not something I can reasonably fix myself, just for 
my own peace of mind.  :)
