Right, once the limit was triggered it would have stored that smaller limit information for the affected mailbox in cache until the next refresh. In 2003 that refresh occurs every 2 hours by default. I suspect it is the same in 2007.

As was the effect when I turned the quotas back off. Although, those changes were made at the db level, not the mb level. I wonder if db changes kick in more quickly than mb changes?

Migrated to it from 2003 over the summer. This morning I realized that the default mailbox quotas was way higher than we had had on our 2003 box (and that we wanted). So I launched EMC and lowered the quotas on the database. Well, next thing I know Outlook 2007 is fussing that I've exceeded my quota. Nuts. I had been exempt in 2003. So I went back into EMC and changed my own mailbox to un-check the settings to inherit size limits. So that should make my quota go away, right? No dice. I even gave it an hour or so--Outlook was still fussing that my quota was exceeded. I launched OWA, and it told me the same thing. So I had to turn quotas back off at the database level. Am I missing something? Is there some trick to exempting a mailbox from the database quota aside from un-checking these?
