Well not the only other option... You can enforce Prohibit Send/Receive on the problem user(s).

Whee! There's a reference to this KB article in the original link I sent: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/217139/EN-US/ You should take note of the last part of this KB: NOTE: If you set mailbox quotas to rules, there may be side effects. For example, if you set a forward and delete rule, it may result in data loss, and if you set meeting requests to go only to the delegate, neither may receive the request if the mailbox is over the limit. Just so you're aware of any potential issues, they don't cover in that other article. Your only other option is to disable auto-forwards. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Kern Sent: Friday, April 13, 2007 10:33 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Re: server side rules Thanks!
