Archiving User emails that are connected to an Exchange Server
I recently had to archive a users Outlookthat reached it's 2gb limit on the exchange server. To my suprise when I looked at how much space he was still using it had only gone from 2,049.2mb to 1,638.8mb. I archived everything older than 3 months ago and I know for a fact that he has not gotten 1.6 gb of email in the last 3 months. Any idea's as to what could be causing this? Thank you, David92595

Check your retension periods; Depending on the Exch server, there could be other contributions which may do this.Sukh

Hi David, If you deleted lots of items, the compacting process could take a long time. During this time you cannot use Outlook,either. Please do it in your off-peak times.Frank Wang TechNet Community Support
