I didn't know you could not set that limit. I guess I just never thought of leaving it blank. So If I leave it blank, then they can continue to receive emails, even though they can't send?
I can see some of my users abusing even this. So long as they get their jokes, they will just keep insisting that I am keeping them from doing their jobs. Had one lady who would not answer any email. When asked why she did this, she claimed she needed a sound card, because without sound she never knew when her email came in. She had turned of the beep that outlook made when new mail came in. When asked why she did this she claimed the beeps, on her new windows 2000 machine "sounded hurtful, and insulting to her". She almost got her way too.

The only use I've seen for it is when you set a really high limit to prevent message loops from getting seriously out of hand. Neil -----Original Message----- From: Majetic, John RAME [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: 03 May 2002 14:24 Posted To: Sunbelt Exchange List Conversation: Mailbox Limits Subject: Mailbox Limits I am getting ready to implement mailbox limts on our server, and have been playing around with them to figure out just how they work, so I can explain it to my users and I have one question. If a user ignores the limits, and gets to the point where his/her box will no longer send or recieve, and someone sends them an email from within the exchange server, the sender gets a message saying "The recipiant is unable to recive the email" or something to that effect. If someone for outside the company sends an email to that person's interent email address do they get a message by default? If not is there any way they can get one?
