Recovering "hard" deleted email items
Submitted by erichagstrom on Wed, 10/07/2009 - 10:09am.You are running Exchange 2003 in your organization. You have deleted item retention set up. Your users are trained that they can click on the the Tools\Recover Deleted Items menu item in Outlook and get stuff back that they deleted on accident. But wait...you get a call that there are no items in that list. What gives? Turns out the user hard deleted the items (used SHIFT+DELETE) when clearing them out. In this case, the Recovery window is empty. Not to fret, there are a couple of workarounds.

Exchange email size restrictions per user from/to the Internet
Submitted by erichagstrom on Thu, 02/28/2008 - 11:25am.Had a question about setting limits for incoming and outgoing email size when sending to or recieving from the internet. This topic is a bit confusing, because there are default limit overrides in a users object in Active Directory Users & Computers. These overrides only apply to INTERNAL mail though. Since all Internet mail has to pass through the SMTP connector, the global settings applied to that connector take precendence. Microsoft has a great KB article that summarizes the settings for limits on email size. Is there a workaround?
