We are currently using Enterprise Vault, and it is pretty good for Email Archival. The biggest issue we have had is importing PST's that are currupt (Go figure, that never happens...), and users losing archived email. Making sure that the…

For us this has already been decided - Enterprise Vault. Yep, after years of having no e-mail archiving solution and relying on PSTs combined with a manual archiving process for terabytes of e-mails we're not jumping in whole hog! Fingers…

Exchange 2010 and PST files - what to do?

Hi allI wondered what you are all considering to do (if anything at all) when you migrate to Exchange 2010 (now that SP1 is out) with PST files?I know that Microsoft are pushing the 'age of the large mailbox' so it makes sense to bring PST files back into the fold right?So the big question is - how would you do it? Manually with Powershell?Let me know.RegardsMichaelSee More

Free Exchange tool - see who has the largest mailboxes!

Hi PeopleWe have a free tool for you. Exchange Mailbox Sizer allows you to view the size and structure of your Exchange data, easily seeing who the biggest offenders (in terms of mailbox size) are. Sliders then show the potential effect of archiving on this data.The tool is completely free - get it at http://www.red-gate.com/products/Exchange_Mailbox_Sizer/index.htmSee More

Certainly. I would like to share the experiences we have heard from our customers, and then raise awareness around managing your systems from a wireless device. We also have events, in the way of webinars, where IT Admins can view demos. We are coming out with Nagios Monitoring integration next month. I understand that it is a popular topic on your site.
