I'm puzzled.  
We had a table that hit maximum extents on our QA server (unlike production
it isn't cleaned out on a daily basis).  I deleted most of the rows, leaving
only a few thousand.
The next day, when inserting more rows I hit the maxextents exceeded error
on an index on that table (of course the number of extents hadn't been
reduced but I would have thought there'd be plenty of room in 121 existing
extents after most of the rows were deleted).  I rebuilt the index and it
went from 121 extents to 1 extent, resolving the problem, but leaving some
curiosity.
It's a primary key sequence based index.  Any ideas?
