Being In Control

| | Comments (1) | TrackBacks (0)

Back when I was at Microsoft, it was a pretty much a regular weekly occurrence that I’d have to massage my Exchange server mailbox as I’d blown through the pitifully small limits that the IT group had set for us.

Then, when we started the new company and I set up the email server I was really happy that I’d never again receive the annoying Exchange nag mail.

Except, of course, when I got it today from my own Exchange server.

Damn!

It looks like I hadn’t actually nuked the default limits!

At least this time, I could connect to the server and blow the limit away… Well, I didn’t exactly blow it completely away - I set it to a reasonable limit.

There’s something to be said for be reminded about a little mailbox hygiene…

Hi Steve,

This is a feature of Small Business Server 2003. The default wizards will set a limit of 250MB per mailbox.
