i have an exchange2000 server. i exported the size list for all mailboxes and got a sum. but the sum(5G) is much lesser than the size(9G) of the priv1.edb file in the exchange folder. what is the problem? since it seems i can't get accurate size of the mailboxes.

The other 4Gb is likely accounted for by whitespace in the database. Take a look at 1221 events in your log to confirm, 1221 is logged when the online maintanace (defrag) runs. For more details re: free space within a database, look at Kb article athttp://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;186291
