Hi!! I need some help here about the exchange 5.5 database.
The private file has 15.6 Gb, and i deleted some accounts with a lot of old mail.
I know the limit size is about 16Gb, how can i compact it ?
Many thanks to all of you.

The common method is to use the utility provided with Exchange - Eseutil. You should, of course, schedule an outage with the users to be certain no one is using email. This utility is run from the command line and full details are available in the article available at the microsoft support center website. XADM: ESEUTIL Command Line Parameters (Q182903)
I'll email you the article.
