Hi Vino, Any updates on this issue? Per my knowledge, this may not problem to SCR, because SCR use logs, not the database. For this issue I want to clarify the following information before we go further: 1. Do you get any error or find any error in your event log? If have, please paste here in you next post. 2. Clear delete item to have a try. (As it may the deleted items are not crossed 14 days and Exchange could not delete it permanently until then, you can change the deleted items setting to 7 days, then wait for the online maintenance to run and check the event ID 1221.)

What is the delay time for the SCR , if you use a delay , all mail in the delay time will build up the logs en thus increasing the storage space until the time has elapsed and the logs can be played into the database
