Our priv store hit it's maximum limit of 16 gig on Sunday.  Looking through the 
event logs I found that at 6 AM, after the maintenance had finished, Exch 
reported free space of 3968 megs.  At 10 AM, the store limit had been hit.  I 
am at a loss to understand how our store grew by about 4 gigabytes in 4 hours.  
Our's is not a particularly active environment, no more than what you would see 
with 150 users (about half of which use email quite a lot).
Our anti-spam software (Mail Frontier, now SonicWall) gets the email first and 
then passes it onto the server so I don't believe it was a "spam flood."
Can anyone shed some light onto where I might look for a cause for this?
BTW, the other interesting thing about this was that the store did not dismount 
and people were able to connect.  But mail delivery was slow.
