Ohhh I think this is good news . . . I'm not worried about how much space is represented by the M: drive I am worried that the data that is represented by the M: drive, which is a folder named by the domain of the Exchange server and then inside that each user has a folder, will grow bigger than what is allocated on D: The D: drive has limited space. E: is where the STM and EDB files are located. What type of data/ info is stored in the M:\domainname.com\username directories and why can I not access it using a file manager, i.e. explorer?

The M: drive represents whatever drive the STM and EDB files are stored on. Don't worry about what M: is reporting as its fullness or emptiness. It has many service packs to go before it can comprehend that kind of zen. If you're worried about how much room your D: drive has open, go look at your D: drive. > -----Original Message----- > From: John Q [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Posted At: Monday, November 19, 2001 04:22 PM > Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List > Conversation: E2K M Drive (moving it) > Subject: Re: E2K M Drive (moving it) > > > O.K.
