If you don't specify any mailbox database, then system will select database randomly.

Hi
Above is correct, As you can see

Specify the mailbox database rather than using a database automatically selected
That means it will select a database automatically

Hi
I could not find any official article talking about mechanism of selecting.
I did a test it will select the oldest mailbox database according to the creation time
Hope it will help

I was under the impression that the randomness is also a mechanism of load balancing. So, if you have two DBs, one with 10 users and another with 20 & if you create a mailbox without a DB name, it will select one with the least number of
users?Rajith Enchiparambil |

Adaxes can be configured to automatically create mailboxes in the database with the least number of mailboxes.
