John,

The Exchange Labs mentioned have 10GB quotas.

From my experience, most students get between 5-20 messages per day (not including Facebook notificiations etc)

what actually is the number of sites ?

thats the interesting question… big deal if you have 3.5 million mailbox’s each student has one but they only have a 10mb limit and exchange very few emails because the forward all of it to another service…

how many sites with different configurations ?
how many messages passed in a day ?

thats the interesting thing

A real database can store terabytes, not as much data as can fit on a cheap camera memory card. I already have more than 20 gigs of data to migrate from Eudora, so that limit’s already busted anyway. With 1TB drives at $130, why do we still have these limits ? What, is it “nobody’ll ever need more than 640 kilobytes” again ?

The Unicode PSTfiles from Outlook 2003 and later have a limit of 20GB.
As mentioned, your administrator is limiting your mailbox size, not Exchange.
Microsoft DOES use a real database already. It’s called Exchange.

Every product I’ve ever used had some frustrating UI issues. Knowing all the beta testing, when I encounter these bugs, I’ll be even more frustrated they weren’t fixed…

Yo: there is more to it than that; there is a limit to the size of PST files past which data corruption occurs. Microsoft: Just use a real query-able database already.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the article: easy to read, interesting, didn’t make me nod off once. Much better than Steve’s posts – glad to have you writing for TechCrunchIT; I was afraid it would die without some better writing.

I’ve been saying the SaaS is the way to go, and can’t wait to see the results for an application like Exchange. Although exchange is already being offered this way, the new version will be built for that specific purpose.

That is your administrator forcing you to have such a limit.

Amen to that – what a pain to keep worrying about my 150MB inbox.

By: Louis-Eric

Louis-Eric — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 17:24:47 +0000

Are they fixing the idiotic inbox size limitations ? I really don’t want to think about managing “archives”: that’s friction.

You’re right about emphasis, but the author is correct in their usage of “multi-tenet” versus your failed correction. Get a dictionary. They are two totally different words/meanings.

How can you say this?

Can you do some spell checking as well before you publish?

empahasis = emphasis
multi-tenet = multi-tenant

Thanks much

Mike,

Can you delete these friggin spam messages?

That sounds more like Beta testing that stress testing.

The way the text reads is that they’ve been slamming it with 70,000% more requests under heavy load conditions, which to me is what stress testing actually is.

According to the article – 5000 to 3.5 million testers
