Exchange 2000 running on SBS2000 with latest service packs.
The priv1.stm seems too big, it is consistently about 9.9gb the priv1.edb file is about 2gb.
After running an offline defragmentation the size of the .stm file was reduced to about a third of its original size but within a couple of days had grown back to its original size.
Should the .stm file be 5 times the size of the .edb file?
Is there any way of reducing the size?
The database limit has been reached a couple of times recently due to the size of this file even though the mail in user mailboxes only adds up to 2gb. Should the combined size of the files really be that big?
Any advice welcome.
