http://www.MSExchange.org/ Sav, I have run the eseutil /d to compress my E2k database. It took about 30 minutes or so, my database was about about 8gb and it got compressed to about 3.5 gb. This was done a little over a month ago and I haven't had any problems whatsoever in regards to running this util.

Does anyone have any advice as this will be my first attempt at this and I would like it go as smooth as possible. I have read the stuff on Microsoft and in books on how to technically run the utility- but wondered if anyone had any real world advice on things I should be careful of or watch out for.
