I know that this is by design and people have written the work around using the event sync described on MS note Q292484. Anyone use a 3rd party fix? Who's works and how much $?

Our mailbox information stores have been ballooning over the past week due to a bug that is not published either by Microsoft or Altigen. For example a one store with one user whose mailbox is 740MB was 16GB. Microsoft and Altigen worked together to correct the issue yet neither have a...

I have a user who has a password on the screen saver and it seems to go away about every week or two. No pattern can be found, the machine is SP2 and has been re service packed. SFC has been run as well. After we reset the configuration it works properly for a while. The user is not changing it.

I know this is more a Windows 2000 item but I think this is something that Exchange admins would be more likely to do. We are looking at deligating to managers the right of adding users to their groups. We need to lock down the MMC so that they can only see properties for the lists they are...
