Hi,
I
have been a lurker in this list for the past two yrs. Have to say this
list has save my
ass
on many occasions. Recently the file blocking discussions save me from
the GONE.SCR,
Thanks for the tips.
Just
a simple question I will not mind if I do not get an
answer.
Anybody knows how big can a personal folder grow?
The
reason I asked is my users are growing and I am running out of disk
space. We are due
to
an upgrading from Exchange 5.5 to Exchange 2000 at the mid next yr. At
the mean time
I am
advising the users to temporary pull their mails to the personal folder.
I read it somewhere
the
personal folder cannot be too large. In fact anything above 1 G is not
advisable.
Definitely Microsoft must have a design spec, say .edb file in Ex 5.5
standard is 16 G; so
.pst
must have a design limitation. It will not be safe for 1 G, 2 G
...
At
the moment I am advising them not to have it more than 1G, but to the mid next
yr is a long
time..
Any
points to enlighten on this issue is appreciatd. One more thing I am
trying out Antigen,
not
bad at all.
Many
thanks (sincerely thanks for the many tips for the past 2
yrs)
