We are upgrading from Office 2000 to Office 2007. We are runnng Exchange server 2003 SP2 Enterprise Edition. Since storage is cheap, up till now I have been instructed to place no limits on mailbox sizes.
Test installation of Outlook 2007 runs like a dog with large mailbox sizes, cached mode is particularly slow. If I disable cached mode, will that prevent a PST file from being stored on the local machine? I really don't want the PST files stored locally. Also, although I have no limits set on mailbox size, I'm getting an "over the limit" error message when I open Outlook. Although my personal mailbox is not that big, I monitor a couple of other mailboxes, so I think they're all going into the local PST file.
So 2 main questions here:
1. How can I keep the mail stored only on the Exchange server?
2. Why am I getting over the limit errors when I have no limits set on the server; AND if it's a local setting, where is it? Microsoft technet says it's in HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office, but I don't have an Office key under Microsoft, only System Certificates and Windows.
Any other tips on speeding up Outlook would be greatly apprecated. We're running (testing) Office 2007 SP1.
Thanks!
