In other words, set the global to 5000 Then create a policy limiting all users EXCEPT userA to 200

You can restrict individual users to values lower than that, but giving a user a limit larger than a global or connector limit will not override it. -- Chris Scharff Messaging Services Architect MessageOne 512.652.4500 This message sent using Outlook 12 Beta 1.

I have a question that's been driving me nuts regarding setting maximum recipient limits. I did some research and found it even more mind boggling that Exchange has so many different places where you can set recipient limits. Here's what the limits have been set to: The global setting (in Global Settings - MEssage delivery) is set to 200 recipients. The SMTP Virtual Server limit is set to 200 recipients. Users A's mailbox setting limit (in Active Directory - Exchange General tab) is set to 5000 recipients. The idea is to restrict the organization from sending emails to more than 200 recipients. BUT to make an exception for User A. User A is sending out emails to the outside world. To make things more complicated, when User A sends an email blast, he does so using an alias which is a distribution list. I couldn't find any place in the distribution list properties to restrict number of recipients (I was only able to restrict message size). Could anyone clear this dilemma for me ?
