I know that an online defrag won't remove white space from the database
but optimize the database, but an offline defrag will, if you look at
the event log for event id's 1221 that will tell you how much space you
will be able to recover, if memory serves me right these entries will be
around midnight to 3 or 4 am.

Exchange 2003 SP1. It does an online defrag regularly. The bloat
happened in the span of two days. I have pretty much come to the
conclusion that an offline defrag is in order, and will be performing
that this weekend.
Anyone have a guess on how long it will take to defrag a 90GB mailbox
store?

What version of Exchange is this and how long has it been since you've
done a defrag? I've seen white space get pretty big before too.

You can set the dumpster at the database level to not retain deleted
items so that should help alleviate some of the burden of mass deletions
when you impose a mandatory mailbox limit. The warning is that this will
eliminate the recover deleted items function.

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.

As far as I know, deleted items do count against the limit

Deleted items will increase the size of the store and are not
counted against the user limits?

Somehow one of my mailbox stores grew 89GB over the weekend.
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?
