Deleted documents reappear
A purge interval prevents replication of deletions

When a document is deleted, it leaves behind a deletion stub. When the database replicates, IBM® Lotus® Notes® uses the deletion stub to identify and delete the same document in the replica.

To save disk space, Notes purges deletion stubs that remain from document deletions according to the replication setting "Remove documents not modified in the last [ ] days." If Notes purges the deletion stubs before they have a chance to replicate, deleted documents can reappear after the next replication. This option is on the Space Saver panel of the File - Replication - Options for this Application dialog box in the Notes client.
