Error messages are not all that great some times, we are working on that. The original issue with the rule limit had to do with the size of an RPC packet. For performance reasons the Exchange design team needed the rules to be able to fit into a single RPC packet. The rules live as a hidden message in your inbox. Since then this limitation has been carried forward and not addresses, as we focused on other things. The problem will be addressed and fixed in the next version of Exchange. Exchange Server "12" will support 64k of rules per-user by default and be configurable up to 256k, with a hard coded maximum of 1MB. If you want to get really tricky you can play with this bit of information. The 32k rules limit is applied on a folder basis. So in theory you have a 32k limit on each folder. I once worked up a horrible tool that worked with this, but never made it public. M$ = whining that profit is bad, in my point of view. Most of my income over the last 10 years has come from the support, and design of Microsoft products. I am not really a fan of biting the hand that feeds me. I will personally stick with MS as a abbreviation. --Kevinm WLKMMAS http://www.wlkmmas.org Wonder what To get me cuz you love me?

"One or more rules could not be uploaded to Exchange server and have been deactivated. This could be because some of the parameters are not supported or there is insufficient space to store all of your rules." Above Error Text that comes up. After you dismiss the window, the rules is disabled and does not run. One other item to note, These users have a local pst that everything gets delivered to. You can show users, you can teach users, but you can't make users do what you want. And on top on that, it's the person who does my review and sets my raises and sets my bonus. I have set a bad example of doing too many miracles with the e-mail system so far. And in their mind, this problem does not look like a big one.

That abbreviation is news to me and I work for Microsoft. I currently have about 35 rules in my personal non work mailbox, and get well over 3000 messages a day. I have yet to hit the limit on rules. But I do make my rules with intelligence; I use as few words as possible in the rule body, and make the rules very simple. The rules are named with single digits, 0-9 and a-z, and most commonly they just move messages from people to folders to help manage traffic and threads. In addition to message rules I use some of the following methods to manage my mailbox: <>I flag messages that have only me in the TO field with a red flag <>I flag messages with a Green flag when they have me and someone else in the TO field <>I flag messages with a Yellow Flag when I am in the CC field <>I use search folders to sort some email by person, or subject <>I change message colours for messages that I need to track in a different ways. --Kevinm WLKMMAS http://www.wlkmmas.org Wonder what To get me cuz you love me?

Subject: RE: E2K3, Is there a way to Increase Rule storage for Users? Thanks !!! A user could have an almost unlimited amount of e-mail, but limited to about twenty or so rules to manage it. But pardon me, if that sound sooooooooo short sighted on M$ part. Can I turn off the Exchange Storage part of the rule saving and go with local storage of rules? Because a rule that does not save gets disabled in Outlook.
