We just started to implement mailbox limits and everyone started deleting mail. The store grew to the point that the drive filled and the store unmounted. I know what to do to fix, but does anyone know of ANY documents on why this happens? Would be greatly appreciated. Amy -----Original Message----- From: Douglas M.

There are only 373 users with mailbox limits of 100MB which means that theoretically there should only be around 37GB max. It doesn't really make any sense and I don't even know where to start to find what is causing the bloat and how to fix it. Any ideas? ------------------------------------------------------ List Archives: http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Exchange Newsletters: http://www.msexchange.org/pages/newsletter.asp ------------------------------------------------------ Visit TechGenix.com for more information about our other sites: http://www.techgenix.com ------------------------------------------------------ You are currently subscribed to this MSEXchange.org Discussion List as: rene_fisher@xxxxxx To unsubscribe visit http://www.webelists.com/cgi/lyris.pl?enter=exchangelist Report abuse to listadmin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ------------------------------ IMPORTANT NOTICE - AVIS IMPORTANT ------------------------------ Computer viruses can be transmitted via email.
