Agreed, you do nothing but create PST hell. Instead, in ESM right click
your mailbox store and select properties, there is a limits tab there
that lets you set the size for when they receive a message to clean up,
when they can't receive and when they can't send. Just set it to match
your mailbox policy or if you don't have one just blank them out and let
them grow forever. As for the users, remember that just deleting an
email doesn't make it go away, it's still sitting in Deleted Items, from
there you "empty deleted items" and think it's gone, but wait there is
still the option to "recover deleted items", delete it from that screen
and suposedly it's gone....

Probably not the best solution to be honest. If you do it this way,
you'll break the single instance storage mechanism of Exchange, leading
to much larger mailbox sizes than there would have been on the server,
thus moving the problem to the file servers or, worse still, the users'
local PCs or laptops (backups, anyone?). And not forgetting, of course,
that PSTs are incredibly fragile and have a lovely tendency to corrupt.

Instead of fiddling with mailbox size on server, you can request users
to download their mails in personal folders (pst) to avoid such
scenario.

Hello all,
I am running Exchange 2003. Users have complained that they keep getting
messages of increasing there mailboxes despite them deleting most of the
items.
Please assist me how to increase the mailbox sizes. I think I used the
default size.
Thank U
