We have one account here with over 16,000 folders, it makes me cry. I keep explaining to them email does not make a good helpdesk system!

He's now got 1000+. Really curious what the alert/warning you're getting is? -----Original Message----- From: bounce-9452818-8066...@lyris.sunbelt-software.com [mailto:bounce-9452818-8066...@lyris.sunbelt-software.com] On Behalf Of Oliver Marshall Sent: 01 November 2011 11:49 To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: RE: Counting folders in mailbox Is it a problem? No doesn't appear to be. It appears to be arbitrary limit that Exchange puts on things. I can't see any google links for a reason why it should be 500 folders or 10, or 10000. However as the only work around would be to make a change to the registry, and as it's one user, I'm keen to get the user fixed rather than the server.

If not, the alert is broken, not the user. -- Ben --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe exchangelist -- Network Support Online Backups Server Management Tel: 0845 307 3443 Email: oliver.marsh...@g2support.com Web: http://www.g2support.com Twitter: g2support Newsletter: http://www.g2support.com/newsletter Mail: 2 Roundhill Road, Brighton, Sussex, BN2 3RF Have you said something nice about us to a friend or colleague ?
