The reason I ask is that we have around 300 users that like to keep a lot of email accessible on server. Some of users have mailboxes anywhere from 100-600MB in size. The problem we have is that when we are doing backups nearly 2/3 of our total 16GB of email files are changing daily, making our daily incremental backups around 10GB.   Anything I can do other then hack user usage down in general.       Thanks       Andrew Aitken Computer Officer School of the Built Environment Heriot-Watt University Edinburgh EH14 4AS   Tel: 0131 451 4406 Mob: 07739 514015
