I want to configure mailbox limits in Exchange 2000. I want to have different limits for different users. I know there is a way to do this, but I can't seem to put my finger on it.
Thanks.
 
To put a global mailbox limit go into System Manager under Exchange and browse to your Mailbox Store. Right click on the mailbox store and left click properties.

Click on the Limits tab and this is where you set your global mailbox limits for everyone.

So how do you bypass these limits for certain people. Well go into AD Users and computers and go into the properties of a user (right click on the user and left click properties).

Click on the Exchange General tab and then click on the Storage limits button. Untick the Use Mailbox storage limits and then set the limits in the boxes listed below.

I appreciate the information.
Thank you.
 
I followed the directions you gave, Nzarth, but the mailbox is still filling at the default settings. Is there a way to update the setting on the exchange server itself?

thanks
