I ran an offline defrag using the eseutil command.  I have deleted items
retention set to 1 day.  What I don't understand is why I only got about 4G
back out of the 20+ that I deleted.
 
Any Ideas?

Did you run the Eseutil utility? If not, you need to. That will give you
your space back, assuming you don't have deleted items retension enabled.

I am running Exchange 5.5, SP4 on WIN2kserver SP2.
 
My database has almost double in the last year from 24G to 40G this year.
Even with less employees this year.  I couple of weeks ago I deleted about
20G worth of email from users that were hidden.  I then ran an offline
defrag hoping to get that space back and to my surprise I only got about 20%
back.
 
Any Ideas why?
 
Also, I have been trying to get my users to empty their deleted and sent
items folders to no avail. What can I do or use to do it myself from the
exchange server as a company wide solution.
 
 
Best regards,
Juan
