We have Exchange 2003. We have a lot of users (school district staff
and students), so we have strict limits on the mailbox size. For many
years we have been telling users to save their messages to their PST
files (which is on their network drive). Now we've come across some
documentation that suggests that is a BAD idea.

What do others use for managing mail and keeping the size of the mailbox
low? Where do you store messages/attachments? How easy is it for the
non-technical users?

Thanks for any and all suggestions.


We archive to a local PST file and use this utility:

to make a copy to our network share so that it can be backed up as part of
our regular backup process.
