Archiving User emails that are connected to an Exchange Server

[David92595]

I recently had to archive a users Outlookthat reached it's 2gb limit on the exchange server. To my suprise when I looked at how much space he was still using it had only gone from 2,049.2mb to 1,638.8mb. I archived everything older than 3 months ago and I know for a fact that he has not gotten 1.6 gb of email in the last 3 months.

Any idea's as to what could be causing this?

Thank you,

David, where are you getting your numbers from? Outlook? Get-mailboxstatistics? I have read that some methods of querying mailbox size in Exchange 2007 are really unreliable as far as having accurate results.

I get them from a report on our SBS Server (Parent Server)
