If you use the standard edition of MS Exchange 5.5 the max is: PRIV.EDB 16GB PUB.EDB 16GB
Period. If you use the Enterprise edition of MS Exchange 5.5 then your only real limit is capability of your hardware. I have seen plenty of databases over 100GB and they function well. The negatives to DB's this size are primarily in the area of disaster recovery. If you and your customer can live with that then go for it.
