Quota Message Copy - Ex2k7
I believe there was a way to send a copy of the Quota messages to an admin mailbox in Exchange 2003 using the "Quota Message Service" tool. A few questions: a) I am trying to see if there is anything similar in Exchange 2007. I am able to modify the quota message itself but not sure ho i can have the system send a copy to an admin. This has been asked by one of our customers I was thinking about a transport rule but looks like there is no DSN type of code to the message so not sure. I could just take the subject line and some content in the body but that will also copy fake messages etc. b) Is it possible to change the time that quota messages are sent ? In Ex2K3 quota service we could do that through the gui after that add on was installed TIA

Hey Prakash, I think you can not set the admin account to receive quota messages with Quota Management Service in Exchange 2003 and it is used to send custom quota message. Quota messages should go to users so they can handle their mailboxes and I think there isn't any way to redirect it to Admin account. References: Customizing Mailbox Limit Warnings with the Quota Message Service for Exchange http://www.msexchange.org/articles/Customizing-Mailbox-Limit-Warnings-Quota-Message-Service.html You can set quota notification time with Set-MailboxDatabase cmdlet with QuotaNotificationSchedule switch. Example: Set-MailboxDatabase -Identity "ServerName\MailboxDatabaseName" -QuotaNotificationSchedule "Sun.2:00-Sun.3:00","Wed.2:00-Wed.3:00"

To modify quota messages in Exchange 2007, you can use Set-SystemMessage cmdlet Next step is to create a Transport Rule that catches these messages and deliver a copy to the admin mailbox you can probably filter on subject or text inside these mail.

As you can customize the email message template for the quota messages, i am assuming that you can easily add the admin mailbox as one of the recipients. I have not tired it myself though. Thanks
