Yah... I go round and round with people here. Exchange 5.5 (our old system that we're upgrading to Exch 2003) had a *hard* limit of 2GB for total mailbox size. Not a setting... but a limitation of the server software. Couldn't handle a mailbox any bigger.

Now, where I come from, 2GB is a lot of stuff. I keep virtually all my mail and more than a year at a time, and still my mailbox is only a couple hundred megs. I cannot fathom people with sloppy habits like this that can fill up Gigs after just a few months.

But still they whine and moan about mail not working after we tell them and tell them and tell them. your... mailbox... is... full... you... must... archive... your... old... mail... then... your... mail... will... work... again...

'but i need to send this 100MB movie to my client right now'.

"aaaaaaarrrrrrggggghhhhhh". [bang] [thud]

BTW, I just got it yesterday, so I haven't watched it. But I got the "Office Space" DVD.

hhehehehehehe....since we're on a personal pet peeves kick.....

Don't you just ~love~ those e-mails that co-workers send around that say "pass this on to 10 people and something great will happen"? Or "Do not delete or you will have bad luck for a zillion years"?

And my personal favorite..."forward this and $1 will be sent to < insert charity org here >".*groan*

However, I do delight in replying to all whenever I receive an urban legend being passed around and get to copy and paste the appropriate snopes link to refute it. Makes the sender think twice before sending anything with my name in the CC list. *grin*
