By the way, I observed exactly the same thing. After things settled down (or we ran out of disk space!) I ran ESEUTIL and it shrank back to near nothingness. I'd be interested in the answer myself.

So here is my set up. Exchange 5.5 SP4 Exchange 2000 SP3 on Windows 2000 Advance Server SP3 I have one Storage Group I have two Mailbox Stores Priv1 (3 Users) Priv2 (0 Users) I have one Public Folder Store So I brought up my Ex2k server in my Ex5.5 site and created the second Mailbox store. I then started replicating all my public folders in the Exchange 5.5 environment to my Ex2k Public Folder Store. Just for giggles I opened up Windows Explorer to watch the Pub1.edb file grow and to my amazement so was the Priv2.edb. So why does that happen? Anyone else notice this? I mean I have no mailboxes on that store except for SMTP and the System Mailbox. This is the second time I have seen this happen.....can anyone explain it? _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
