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!

One of my users, until recently, had 1500+ folders. He's now got 1000+.

Really curious what the alert/warning you're getting is?

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.

  Is having that many folders a problem?  Performance, disk capacity, etc.?

  If not, the alert is broken, not the user.
