I don't argue that there should be size limits on mailboxes. I personally think they're silly (with caveats, of course).

Enterprise Size Limitations (Recommended or Tec hnical) Sorry, but recovery time is all there is, along with more pedestrian issues like does the backup fit on your tapes, and does the store fit on your disks. Exchange 5.5 deals remarkably well with huge databases. -Peter -----Original Message----- From: Rosales, Mario [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, July 22, 2003 12:11 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Exchange 5.5. Enterprise Size Limitations (Recommended or Tec hnic al) Thanks for the replies but what I am looking for is documentation to show to mamangement. Is there any type of "Best Practices" or any Limitations due to whatever issues that it would be recommended for an Exchange Mailbox and/or Information store not to get "HUMONGOUS" We are trying to enforce limits but we need some Document/White Paper that would let us know what we recommend as max size for an Information store or a Mailbox to use that as a "Point of Discussion" of why to enfore limits? I know that Exchange Standard is 16 Gig, On Enterprise if it can get to a terrabyte(S) or more? Why would it not be recommended (Have large I/S and mailboxbes) besides Recovery time would be slow? What other points can be brought up that are DOCUMENTED of why not to have such a large information store or Mailboxes? Any help is appreciated!
