Hi,
To get the size of a mailbox, we can use the Get-MailboxStatistics cmdlet to obtain information. In Exchange 2007, the ESM no longer exists. Where do you see the different mailbox size (15gb)? Do you mean EMC?
In EMC, Recipient Configuration->Mailbox, right click on the user mailbox and choose
Properties, under General tab, you can see the
Size.
Best regards,
Belinda

Looking for a report on user mailbox size in Unity Connection 8.5.1

Cannot find a report that shows mail box size so that we can identify users approaching limit.
The canned reports don't have mailbox size. Thanks in advance. Mel

Hi Melvin,
You can use the User Data Dump tool. Check out the following post: https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3403809#3403809

OWA Users Mailbox Size Inceasing

Hi Guyz,
Hope ur all doing good. I have a query regarding OWA, we have so many remote users who only uses OWA and cannot use outlook. Now their mailbox size are increasing, is there any way to archive their emails and still allowing them to access their archived
emails as well? Cannot use outlook and also dont have enough space to use Personal Archives option, please suggest any other solution or any tool
Virgo

Well the main question is why you want to archive the data in the first place? If they're accessing the email via webmail then what ever you do the messages will have to remain in Exchange, since there's no way for those users to access email exported in
a .pst file. Obviously that means there's little point archiving if the aim is to reduce the overall amount of disk space used by Exchange. Additionally, I can't imagine their mailboxes are large enough that Exchange can't handle the size of them.
However, if you wanted to do something like reduce the amount of data being backed up, by spitting the old messages out of the mailbox store holding them, then I guess one option would be to export those messages into a separate "archive" mailbox for each
user. That way if you have multiple mail stores configured you could move those archive mailboxes to a different store, with perhaps a smaller backup frequency etc.
Since OWA does allow users to open additional mailboxes that they have permission to, so long as you granted the users full mailbox permissions to their corresponding archive mailbox, they could then access the old data from OWA still. You can export the
messages using New-MailboxExportRequest
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff607299(v=exchg.150).aspx and specify the period of time you want to archive. I can't see a method to directly archive from one mailbox to another, but you could use that to archive to .pst on the server, and
then use
New-MailboxImportRequest http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff607310(v=exchg.150).aspx to import it into the archive mailbox.

Exchange 2013 - EMC 2013 - View Mailbox Size With Column In EMC - How To View Mailbox Size Exchange 2013?

Is there a way to add a column to show each users mailbox size in the EMC for Exchange 2013 under recipients > mailboxes?
Such a simple tool would be so much easier for administrative purposes.

Hi,
There is no way to add the column of mailbox size back to EAC in Exchange 2013, I don't know why this option is removed and there is no official document explaining this issue.
To get the mailbox size, we can use commands to get it.
Thanks for your understanding.

List of exchange users with mailbox size per database.

Hello Friends,
Need small help i need to take out the list of users start with Alphabet A, B , C till Z per database along with their mailbox size limit so is there any simple way to get the list.
Thanks
Amit

Hi,
How about this?
http://help.outlook.com/en-us/140/gg576861.aspx
EDIT: Or maybe this:
$out = @()
$users = Get-Mailbox -ResultSize Unlimited
ForEach ($user in $users) {
$userMailboxStatistics = Get-MailboxStatistics $user
$props = @{
Username = $user.SamAccountName
DisplayName = $user.DisplayName
Database = $user.Database
OrganizationalUnit = $user.OrganizationalUnit
'Quota Status' = $userMailboxStatistics.StorageLimitStatus
TotalItemSize = $userMailboxStatistics.TotalItemSize
$out += New-Object PsObject -Property $props
$out | Sort-Object Database,DisplayName | Export-Csv .\mbxDetails.csv -NoTypeInformation
Adjust the $props hash as needed to add/remove properties to the output object.

Increase Users Voice mailbox Size

Hi All, after I upgraded to 6.1(3) it seems that some things have defaulted in Unity. Such as time zones and mailbox sizes. I have a couple of users that cant access there mail box because its saying that its full. How can I increase how many voice mail and the size of the voice mail for users.
I have currently changed settings in the "message store" for "warning quota, send quota, and send and recieve quota." Directly under that I have number of voice mail boxes and size however, that is greyed out. I'm not sure if I'm doing this correctly.
Please any suggestions?
thanks,
Mike
Were running
CUCM 6 business edition bundle unity 2.1

You are on the right track, you can either change the quota globally or per user, simply specify customer settings that will override the defaults (12,13,14 Mb I belive).

Mailbox migration size(data copied) vs mailbox size limit granted to user

Hi,
I have an odd question. I am migrating a user from exchange 2010 to 2013 I can see that the statistics of the user are as follows:
The catch is that the user is restricted to a 2GB mailbox size limit. So where did the extra 10GB come from?

Hi,
The data migrated contains two large things I can think of: Personal archive mailboxes and corrupted items.
And corrupted items are most likely to lead to greater 2G.
We can cheek this problem after migration completed.

Webconsole user diagnostics: "Current Mailbox Size" missing

Hi Forum,
why does the administration console show the following line for most users? For a few users this entry is missing...
Code:
Attribute ID Description Value
61238 Current Mailbox Size (MB) 187
Is this a bug or are these accounts some kind of defect or is this field just hidden or....?
We definitely need this statistic for ALL users
Thanks for any suggestions,
Pascal

Hi Laura,
thanks, I did that (after I run some gwchecks with "Update user disk space totals ).
But no offence here and you were right. After running an audit report for the POA where the user resides, the mailbox size appears.
Problem solved, thanks Laura, you can now call it a day

How to fetch size limits of users mailboxes in exchange 2007

Hi Team,
I've a list of users who scattered on different SGs of same server in exchange 2007. The Exchange Server is SCC cluster.
My query is to input the user list (.txt file) and find out the storage quota limits (IssueWarning, Prohibit Send and Prohibit send and recive) currently set on listed user mailboxes. The output shouold be in .txt or .csv file.
Please help me in writing the power shell command to fetch the required details
Thanking you
regards,
Midda

This will read the names from the txt file and export the details to a csv file
Get-Content "C:\userlist.txt" | ForEach-Object {Get-Mailbox $_ | Select-Object DisplayName, IssueWarningQuota, ProhibitSendQuota, ProhibitSendReceiveQuota} | Export-Csv C:\Userquota.csv
But it will show unlimited if the user having database default quota. Below command will show you the database quota settings
Get-Mailboxdatabase | Select-Object Name, IssueWarningQuota, ProhibitSendQuota, ProhibitSendRe
ceiveQuota
Thanks, MAS

Generate detailed user information including Mailbox Size Information

Hello everyone,
Using the Exchange management console I was able to export mailbox information that include 'UserMailbox, LinkedMailbox, RoomMailbox and Shared Mailboxes' but I wanted to also include a column for mailbox usage data and export that to a CSV..
Exchange Management Console Output:
Get-Recipient -ResultSize 'unlimited' -SortBy DisplayName -RecipientType 'UserMailbox' -Filter '((((RecipientTypeDetails -like ''*UserMailbox*'') -or (RecipientTypeDetails -like ''*LinkedMailbox*'') -or (RecipientTypeDetails -like ''*RoomMailbox*'') -or
(RecipientTypeDetails -like ''*SharedMailbox*''))))' | Out-file c:\UserListing.csv
When I put in the following code:
Get-Recipient -ResultSize 'unlimited' -SortBy DisplayName -RecipientType 'UserMailbox' -Filter '((((RecipientTypeDetails -like ''*UserMailbox*'') -or (RecipientTypeDetails -like ''*LinkedMailbox*'') -or (RecipientTypeDetails -like ''*RoomMailbox*'') -or
(RecipientTypeDetails -like ''*SharedMailbox*''))))' | Get-MailboxStatistics | select TotalItemSize | Out-file c:\UserListWithMBSIze.csv
This will only output the mailbox stats information in one column.
Does anyone know how to generate a listing that will include the following:
DisplayName, SamAccountName, LastModified Date, Organization Unit, Mailbox Size Data
Exchange 2010 Outlook 2007 (cache mode)

Thanks Amit!
This command works perfectly on an individual mailbox.
ie:
get-mailbox identity "Bob Jones" | Get-MailboxStatistics | select displayname, @{expression={(Get-Recipient $_.DisplayName).SamAccountName};name="SamAccountName"},@{expression={(Get-Recipient $_.DisplayName).OrganizationalUnit};name="OrganizationalUnit"}, @{expression={$_.totalitemsize.value.ToMB()};name="Size(MB)"} | Export-CSV Mailboxes.csv -NoTypeInformation
But if I try and use the same command for all mailboxes it's missing the OU information and SamAccountName is missing but displays the MB size and name.

Maximum number of user mailboxes supported by single Exchange Database in 2007 / 2010 & 2013 ?

What is the Maximum number of user mailboxes supported by single Exchange Database in 2007 / 2010 & 2013 ?
Aditya Mediratta

Agree with Keith, there is no MB # limit, however there are practical concerns such as DB size and how that effects recoverability as well as performance. In terms of extremes we had one major educational customer that had 35K Mailboxes in
a single database so you can utilize a ridiculous # of mailboxes in a DB if desired. IMO you are better off to keep the # of mailboxes to a reasonable level, i.e. no more than 250-500 mailboxes per DB
Search, Recover, & Extract Mailboxes, Folders, & Email Items from Offline Exchange Mailbox and Public Folder EDB's and Live Exchange Servers or Import/Migrate direct from Offline EDB to Any Production Exchange Server, even cross version i.e. 2003 -->
2007 --> 2010 --> 2013 with Lucid8's

Cyrus max mailbox size? (Not quota)

Hi,
Hopefully a quick question... I searched on the forums and web but to no avail, everything talked about quota.
I just wanted to know if there is a suggested limit for individual mailbox sizes in Cyrus (Theoretical or definitive)? What about the overall database size, any suggested or definitive limits there?
This is not a space concern (Mail servers raid6 has a good 1TB left). I mainly just want to know if there is a point where performance begins to suffer and / or if chance of database / mailbox corruption increases at a certain level. This is on a 10.5.6 xServe 8 core 4GB RAM connected to a promise raid6.
Naturally a reconstruct takes longer on a larger mbox and so on of course. Thanks in advance for any answers!

Hey Alex,
Quick followup if I may. For clarification sake. Do you mean per "user" or per "mailbox". IE: I have a user with 1.3GB in "inbox" for example but say they also have 700MB in a mailbox they created on the same IMAP account called "archive" and then another called "personal" at 300MB. Have I eclipsed the the best practice 2GB at this point or is it a per folder basis?
For example when I review these in cyrus admin they are of course separate but when viewing the user backup records as a whole through mailbfr, it combines all folders per user account as expected. Just wondering which value to go off.
Thanks for your continued help!

Increase your mailbox size - email threat

I have been hit with an email threat - subject starts out as "Increase Your Mailbox Size", there is a link in the email. I am guessing that this initiates when a user clicks on the link, but the link is disabled now.
We’ve had at least a couple users click this, I have filters to prevent this particular subject from coming in. But, when this thing starts up it sends out thousands of emails. The emails go out with 200 recipients per email, the subject changes – I’ve seen these subjects –
ATTENTION BENEFICIARY!!
MAILBOX QUOTA FULL
INCREASE YOUR MAILBOX SPACE
Promotion of sum of
Promotion sum
Anyone else seen this? I’m still not sure that I won’t have another user that has it. It has been difficult to trace the source, seems to have come back after a computer was wiped and mailbox cleaned. Ironport av isn’t catching it incoming or outgoing.

Greetings
Although I have not seen this one specifically this sounds like one of the many targeted phishing attacks going around lately. Ideally we would like to catch this before the user ever see's it. If the subject title is always the same you can of course create a simple filter to drop these messages. If possible we would like to get copies so that we can work towards updating the antispam rule sets to block this type of message.
I am including instructons on that process below.
To send a missed spam or message incorrectly marked as "not-spam" email to IronPort Systems for examination, there are a number of ways to submit messages.
Preferred: Use the Outlook plug-in or Lotus plug-in, found on the Cisco IronPort Email Security Page.
For customers using clients other than Microsoft Outlook, go to your email program and follow the instructions to attach the email as an RFC-822 MIME encoded attachment. See article 472.
(NOTE: All submitted messages must be in the RFC 822 format and ONLY that format. Any other formats (such as S/MIME) are currently not compatible with the submission tool.)
Note: Unless submitted through a plug-in (MS Outlook, not MS Outlook Express), messages forwarded must be RFC-822 compliant attachments. Forwards of previously forwarded messages cannot be processed at this time.
Send false negative (missed spam) to [email protected]
Send false positive (mail marked as spam, but is actually ham) email and false positive marketing mail to IronPort Systems to [email protected]
Send missed marketing mail to [email protected]
Each message is reviewed by a team of human analysts and used to enhance the accuracy and effectiveness of the product.
Once we receive submissions from a customer or from other sources, these messages are passed through automated classification systems that makes use of our latest rule set. If these messages are tagged by the new rule-set as spam, they are classified as such. Due to a delay in receiving samples and generating rules, many of the missed-spam messages usually have rules published between the time they are received by our customers and reported to us.
There are some messages that are part of new spam trends or new variants that are sufficiently different or new spam strains that are not classified by automated systems. Basically, any messages that are held for classification due to some mitigating factors are held for human review. We attempt to get to these messages within 2-3 hours of them being injested into the corpus.
Note: Although every report sent as an RFC-822 attachment to this address will be reviewed, most submissions will not receive an actual physical reply from IronPort.
