Unfortunately we haven't updated exchange to 2003. That is coming but I was able to get the exchange infor easy enough manually in a way. I just opened system manager and connected to the mailstore and exported the list which shows the information I needed except the mailstore name. Which I just did a simple copy paste fill in within excel and in a few hours had the portion of users I needed with the mailstore and size information. That actually wasn't that bad. Home drive size though could be much more difficult seeing as the people are in different file share areas.
I will definatley keep this information though for when we go to 2003 will make some reports easier to compile.

See: http://blogs.brnets.com/michael/archive/2004/07/07/172.aspx It does have a couple of issues (revolving around permissions and updating the last login date of a mailbox). The WMI solution is much better, IMHO. I have a sample online for that at: http://blogs.brnets.com/michael/archive/2004/07/26/181.aspx -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brian Desmond Sent: Sunday, January 30, 2005 1:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] ldap AS far as mailbox size, don't even try to tackle the CDO for it. You need some hardcore C++ fun, and I heard somewhere that it doesn't even compile right unless you've got some weird stuff setup. Since you have E2k3, you can query WMI for mailbox size, so it's really easy. So is folder size - just make yourself a VBS that recurses through folders with FileSystemObject summing the size of the files. If you need a sample lemme know.
