Free Busy Question
Hi All, I've been using Loadsim to test Free Busy across 2 Exchange Orgs (in readiness for a migration using Quest Migration Manager) and my Schedule + Free Busy Public Folder replica is 800mb with 90,000 items. I've since used Mailbox Manager policies to remove the Calendar items from the mailboxes, however, the size of my F/B PF replica hasn't changed. I thought the MADFB overnight schedule would run and reduce the size but it hasn't changed at all. Does anyone know how/what will trigger this?

You should be able to use OutlookSpy or MFCMapi (the MAPI Editor) to look at a PF store and its contents.

Do versions of outlook prior to 2007 even care about domain? Aren't they looking up f/b simply based on the legacyExchangeDN? On the 2007 side I get how they look up via availability, but does that also include f/b that is only contained in the Schedule+ Free Busy pf as an eml, i.e. there is no Exchange mailbox only a service that pushes the f/b to the public folder? Is there anyway outside of OWA/Outlook to see that data? Thanks for the help. -alex On Thu, Jul 2, 2009 at 1:32 PM, Michael B.
