Then be sure you have hard limits on each mailbox for size. I'm not a
fan of send/receive limits, but a send limit on mailbox size would be
good. 
Ie, maximum size limit on the mailbox size is X. When that size is
reached user can no longer send mail

Right.  Your first course of action should be to disable automatic
replies and forwards to the Internet.

One of your users probably has an auto-reply rule that has entered into
a loop with a mailbox somewhere else and they keep on sending
auto-replies to each other.

Or it could be receiving NDRs, auto-replying to them, and getting more
NDRs and autoreplying to them, etc.

Same thing could happen with forwarding rules.

Subject: exchange 5.5 priv growing at a rapid rate

Was hoping you guys could help me out:

Exchange 5.5 sp4 + hotfixes.

I have an Exchange 5.5 priv that is growing very rapidly.  About 600
users, but almost all of them have 20 MB mailboxes.  The DB is at 56GB,
now and has been growing about 1GB a day for the last few days.  No
mailboxes have been found to be out of whack.  

Does anyone have any suggestions?
