Orin,

It is possible to move subfolders, but you have to use the exchange client
that allows directory pane movement (Outlook does not allow this).

Cheers

Paul

Your tech's a moron who doesn't know what he/she is talking about.  Steer
clear of PSTs.

Two questions, please.

We have some users growing pretty hefty mailboxes, one over 300 MB.

A tech told me mailboxes over 50 MB and certainly 100 MB can cause
performance problems. Agree? (I haven't seen performance degredation yet.)

The tech reccommends we have users create personal folders and move files
there. While experimenting with this, we noticed  restrictions when dragging
a folder from the mailbox to personal folders. Looks like you can't move a
folder with subfolders. Please comment.

Are you sure that they understood that you were talking about Exchange and
not MSMail?

I have users with that much unread mail in their Inbox alone!!!

RE: Mailbox capacity

2001-08-31 Thread Tom Meunier

The tech is wrong.   Now if the 50mb consists of 2kb text messages in
the Inbox folder, and you're connecting via IMAP, then yes, it's gonna
poop on you.  But you could still use OWA, POP3, or Outlook over VPN (or
not, but let's not have those big cargo ships steering into each other)
and performance will rock.  Prove it to him with a laptop and a 28.8
modem.  On the server side, the only thing that will suffer is it will
take (obviously) longer to do your nightly maintenance and backups.   Or
if you want to search the store for a message.  (but it'll be a heckuva
lot faster than searching a store AND a PST)

Who is this tech, and why haven't you strung him up by his toes, carved
"Bill Gates Hates Netscape" on his stomach with an exacto knife, and
sacrificed him to the Great God Jobs yet?

He (or she) is wrong.

RE: Mailbox capacity

2001-08-31 Thread Aaron Brasslett

I have two comments:

1) Never talk to that tech again... he/she has no clue.

2) Do not move stuff to personal folders... if it is worth keeping, keep it
on the Exchange server.  Performance will not suffer.  I have a user with a
1.5GB mailbox with no performance problems.

Aaron
