Hello Fernando Master,

Sounds like your users sends a lot of video, audio, voice, http files etc.

As you probably know the .STM file holds non-exchange files, while the .EDB file holds Rich text formatted messages, like email messages etc.

Hi Henry,

Thank you for your answer, but I didn�t understand well how it works. I�m a little worried about it, because we have a 70Gb storage for 3.000 users.We limited the storage for each user at 20Mb, imagining that the maximum of space that we could have is 60Gb. If I limit an user only to have 20Mb of storage, and it�s content could be a clear text, or some files, videos, images, it means that it is storaged in two files (.edb and .stm) and the maximum amount of space that I will have is the sum of both ?
