You can archive hidden mailboxes, and disabled ones, it’s just not the default.
In order to process hidden mailboxes add the following key to the EV server :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREKVSEnterprise VaultAgents]
“ProcessHiddenMailboxes”=dword:00000001

In order to process AD disabled mailboxes, add the following key to the EV server :

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREKVSEnterprise VaultAgents]
“ExcludeDisabledADAccounts”=dword:00000000

Worth trying in your environment, and see if it fits your process needs.

    Hi
    I have tried this without success, but have found articles suggesting this needs to be run agains the directory database, on a daily basis post the provisioning tasks running.
    Just wondering what your experience with this is
    “UPDATE ExchangeMailboxEntry SET MbxExchangeState = ’0′ WHERE MbxExchangeState = ’2′”
    EV 8 SP4
