Mailbox size
in [Microsoft Exchange]
|
From: Tom Karpowski on 28 Apr 2010 16:02 I have a user with a 215 MB mailbox(according to Outlook on different PCs) yet my Exchange 2K3 ESM says her mailbox is 366 MB. What's the recommendation to fix it...? Thanks, Tom...
From: Fritz on 28 Apr 2010 16:09 I would guess nothing. Exchange uses a different storage engine than PST files do so the file size might differ (an it usually does) from the size you see when looking at the mailbox in the ESM. J.

If you're paranoied and you feel like something is up, create another mailbox store in the ESM and move the user's mailbox to it after making a PST backup of it first. Once that's done and everything is ok, you can move it back to the original store.
