Excellent point ... I'm writing my comments to the user survey results. I just added the following:
One complaint about Notes and the reply with history feature: attachments remain in the history. This inflates the storage requirements of the server significantly. Also Notes keeps a copy of each message for each recipient and the sender. thus a message with a 100k attachment sent to 99 people requires 10MB of storage space. If each recipient replies once to all with history, the server now needs 1GB of storage space for a simple discussion. Exchange links a single copy of the message to the 99 recipients and sender requiring only 100k to store the initial message while the requirement to hold the replies is practically insignificant. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tony Hlabse" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Exchange Discussions" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 12:12 PM Subject: RE: Ex2k v.
