How about telling them not to send attachments that large anyway? I'm assuming you have a file server? Create group shares and have them send the link to the file via e-mail.
How hard is that? -----Original Message----- From: Tigue Williams [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 11, 2003 8:14 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: attachement overload Running Exchange 5.5. We have a situation in our company where people need to mail files to each other on a regular basis. We have mailboxes in excess of 500mb. IS there any way to manage attachements better. We do not want to tell people not to use them. We do not want to block them. If one user sends a 5mb file to 5 users this will take 30 mb of space on the exchange server (5X5+5 for the sender in sent items). This is an AWFULL lot of redundancy in the database. IS there any way to manage this better? We tried public folders but this just moves the files from one database to another in Exchange 5.5. TIA __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
