Deleted Item Recovery and Mailbox Size - 10.Mar.2006 2:05:55 PM

I've just set up Exchange with a 14 day deleted item recovery setting. All accounts have 120mb mailbox limits with warnings sent at 80mb - because the limit is quite low some users are archiving every week

Can someone please advise whether Exchange includes deleted items that are available for recovery but HAVE been cleared from the deleted items folder by the user when calculating the mailbox sizes? If so this could result in some confusion when users try to free up mailbox space

Thanks

If you remove emails from the 'deleted items' folder you see within the Exchange Manager that the number of items in the mailbox decreases. The same goes for the size of the mailbox but email can still be restored from the 'deleted items' folder.
