Another guy in my group handled that .... Can't think of the size of the
arrays or the backup scheme at the moment ... 200-250meg was the mailbox
quota.. not all played nice , of course ... one guy had a 1.2 gig mailbox,
didnt like PSTs (good idea) but literally never deleted mail (BAD idea)

Ok that is better : > but with your disk sizes that many serves would be
about right preserver. That has a good deal to do with it. How much disk
space you give the users. How much can you store on one drive array and
backup in one night? Per server.

no no ... that would be a total waste , i meant 200 to 300 users per
server and about 10 or 15 servers/total site. I have dealt with
1000-2000 user base , primarily

15-50 for the peeones and maybe 100 for the whiners. Is what I do.
Unless it is a small seat install then no limits.
Your limits need at a bare minimum 80 gigs on the server. Not counting
public store, and room for other things, wait 10-15 servers for 300
people?? You mean to tell me you work with them at 30 people per server?
Is that a geography thing? Or in a central location?

Also the size of the mailbox limit and IS store too...
The ones I have worked on usually run about 200-300 users/server ,
limit/avg of 250megs/user, 10-15servers

William knows everything I am sure he read it. He might have even
written the articles..
He even invented pants in his spare time..
I did design work on a 22,000 seat exchange install. That one got down
to about 12 servers would have been less but because of there locations
some of the sires worked out better to have local servers. No clue on
the magic number but no more then about 4k preserver, that is thinking
that you have some nice hardware. Hardware really plays a good deal in
this game. -----Original Message-----

bar in the back woods ?

It is still a supported product, but they do not sell licenses anymore.
