    "Find" criteria in AD users & computers returning no results

    We are running W2K SP2. I want to find all users in a particular mailstore. However, when I try to filter by mailstore, via AD Users & Computers snap-in, no results are returned. For instance, I know from user object>Exchange General that mailstore I want is EXCHANGE1/StoreGroup1/MailStore1...

    Mail deletion via Policies

    We are running Exchange 2000, SP2. We have been looking at setting up policies to delete mail by age and have run various "Report only" tests to see what space would be freed up. Whilst we analyse, we have turned off all Mailbox Manager settings, i.e. "unticked" all the...

    Recipient Policies Management

    We have several recipient policies set up and I wish to set up a new one to test how much space could be saved by deleting mail older than a certain age.

    A user has a problem that when he adds a new contact, he gets dialogue box asking "Do you want to dial-out?" I presume this is just a configuration setting but cannot find it to unset. Can anyone help? Thanks John McCallum

    Restrict recipients

    We have PCs located in contractors' offices who are connected to our network and need access to our Exchange 2000 system. Is it possible to restrict mails they can send to a predefined list, in the same way that incoming mail can be restricted to certain senders? Thanks John McCallum

    Exchange 2000 Archivivng/Deleting

    We need to develop a centralised archiving/deletion policy for Exchange 2000, as our mailstores are rapidly growing. We would prefer this route rather than relying on our users to archive themselves. Is there an existing Exchange utility or could we do via policies or would we have to use a...
