Because it looks like it's overcoming people's storage limits. I suppose a better solution is to negate the limits, have everyone delete the message and then re-instate the limits, but this way would require less user interaction...

This brings to mind a question. Since Exchange uses SIS, there is only one copy of this mail on the server. So it isn't taking up space. Is it that when everyone opened it at once it brought your system to its knees and if that is the case, most everyone has probably opened it. So what is this to accomplish? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Martin Blackstone Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2001 1:38 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Deleting/Clearing a Large Message from User Mailboxes: Programmatic Solutions? ISScan Q224493 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Bauer, Mr. Rick Sent: Tuesday, October 02, 2001 1:29 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Deleting/Clearing a Large Message from User Mailboxes: Programmatic Solutions? Dear Experts: Are there any automated ways to sweep a lot of mailboxes (probably 500) to remove a large e-mail (embedded graphics, I know, we already shot the sender) besides "recall message" from the sender side? We have limited the size of user mailboxes and are now filling many of them. I am wondering if there are any tools in Exchange (Ex2K) that could do this automatically at the IS level. Sorry if this question is too basic or infantile; my tentative (non-technical) solution is to send out a voice mail and tell them to delete this particular message, but I was wondering if we could do it on our side of the ball. Thanks in advance.
