From: clearview92 on 27 Oct 2009 12:07 Hi, I have a small business server and my business requires us to forward emails to each other a lot which is maxing my server memory. Is there a way I can delete attachments automatically after a period of time? Here's hoping.. Brendan -- clearview92

Your server's memory will not have a lot of bearing on the size of the messages you can store. The amount of disk space, however, can be a factor. With treabyte drives costing US $75, however, data tends to become more important than hardware. > Is there a way I can delete attachments automatically after a period of > time?

If the host is a company "business" server, why does it matter what happens with Outlook. You shouldn't be using a company server as your personal workstation. You should be using your own workstation host on which Outlook runs as your personal e-mail client. If you're asking about disk space needed for your mail server running on your company's server host then more disk space is needed. Buy more disks or get a bigger one. Disk hardware is cheap. After all, since this is a company server host, it also needs to be backed up so you'll need bigger disks (locally or networked) to accomodate the ever increasing file space consumption on the server host. Removing attachments would only be a stopgap solution, anyway. More e-mails are coming and users will add more files (which are business critical and must be saved and also backed up) to the server. So plan on increasing disk space now or figuring out how to incorporate file servers to add more disk space.

That's "terabyte", of course. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook]
From: clearview92 on 3 Nov 2009 03:29 HI Guys, Thanks for the replies.... I just want to add at this point that it's not spam!! My work colleagues use remote devices to connect to the exchange, we had a problem twice when the exchange server wasn't sending emails to remotes and the guys didn't realise.... This auto email is just to make sure that the guys know first thing in the morning every morning that the exchange is working Bob -- clearview92
