Exchange 5.5 SP3 on Windows 2000 Sever.

Some of my users, scratch that, most of my users are not getting an notifaction that their mailboxes are over the size limit. Yes I have the limits set in the Private Information Store and yes each of their mailboxes has the "Use information store defaults" box checked. Any ideas?

What makes you think it's not working properly?

If none of your users are getting notification, check the frequency that the Storage Warning messages are generated.

To do this, follow these steps:

1. Start the Microsoft Exchange Administrator program.

2. Expand the Site object for the site that you would like this change to be implemented.

3. Select the Configuration object of the site in step 2.

4. Select the Information Store Site Configuration object and select Properties on the File menu.

5. Click the Storage Warnings tab and change the setting to a more frequent interval than is currently selected.

Always will send warning notification messages every 15 minutes.

I don't recall saying, "it wasn't working", I said that most of users aren't getting the notifications. As it turns out the "Storage Warnings" in "Store Site Configuration" was set to some odd time where no one was here. So the laptop users, or at least the ones that bring their machines home, weren't getting the messages. (yes for some stupid reason some of my users are laptops users that don't bring their laptops home every night, don't ask me why they even have laptops, cause I don't have the foggiest idea)

Thank you very very much.
