Title: Message
Happy Friday everyone, came up with a thought this morning and was wondering if anyone knew the answer to the following situation.
 
1.  Exchange 5.5
2.  Outlook 2000 clients
3.  No PST's.
 
User A sends 1 100 Megabyte file to ten users.  Because of SIS only 100 Megs of space was used on the Exchange server, not 1000.  Each user will show that they are using 100 Megs of space, but my understanding is that there is only one 100 Meg file with 10 mailboxes pointing to it.
 
Assuming I am correct with everything that I wrote:
 
Why doesn't Exchange charge, and Outlook display 10 megabytes to each mailbox?  After five people delete the attachment (really the pointer to the SIS 100 Meg object), the remaining five  would each be charged 20 megabytes.  That make any sense?
 
My first instinct is that it would be just to damn complex.  Any thoughts Guru's? 
 
By the way, this came up during an argument about PST's after I explained the benefits of SIS and using reasonable mailbox limits.  Have a great weekend everyone.
