Hello,

Our 2 principles in our company, now have mailboxes that are over 2 Gigs
in size EACH.

Is it irresponsible of me, to let this go on?  I mean, the likelihood of
a crash, and dealing with these singularly gargantuan mail files -
should I maybe create different (or additional) message stores, rather
than folders - in order to categorize their e-mail?  Then just give them
access to the stores, so they all appear inside their Outlook - which
will allow them to grow larger separately (using rules, etc. to stick
particular types of e-mails into the proper folders).

OR is this not a big deal, because Exchange handles the mail store so
well (knock on wood).

I would love to hear your input regarding the topic.  2 Gigs seems
excessive - AND another thing I can no longer run is EXMERGE - because
you can't break the 2 Gig .PST barrier.

That's another thing I always liked doing, for nice clean archives - is
running EXMERGE and generating individual .PST files for each of our
users mailboxes.  It's cool, because if a user ever wanted to get up and
running IMMEDIATELY (after a crash), I could simply copy their latest
.PST file to their local machine, and they can at least get most of
their mail, while I am busy restoring the server.

Thanks for your input,

Mike
