Hey Martin, I do understand that it is more of an Outlook thing but can you elaborate on "Control the items in their folders"?
Thanks Shay From: Martin Blackstone [mailto:mblackst...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, March 23, 2009 8:55 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Large Mailboxes Performance I don't think large mailboxes from an Exchange perspective are a performance issue. The issue mainly lies in Outlook performance and if your users can somehow learn to control the items in their folders, the performance will be fine. From: Mayo, Shay [mailto:shay.m...@absg.com] Sent: Monday, March 23, 2009 6:38 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Large Mailboxes Performance Hey, Just curious what type of performance people have had with large mailboxes on Exchange 2007. Our company has a strict email retention policy that purges email after 30 days, but we have about 200 people though that have special circumstances where they need to store email long term. We implemented an archiving product from C2C about 1 and ½ years ago which turned out to be a far less than desirable solution for our users. We have fully migrated to Exchange 2007 and are kicking around the idea of not having a 3rd party archiving system and just allowing larger mailboxes (3-10 GB) for these special users. So my question is, what kind of performance have you guys seen with mailboxes this large? Do they benefit from Office 2k7 or have they actually ran fine with Office2k3? Lastly, a lot of these users travel and will be using cached Exchange mode. So I am mainly worried about performance from large OSTs....
