Note: The Microsoft Exchange 2000 or Microsoft Exchange 2003 CD-ROM might be required in order to uninstall Microsoft Exchange System Manager. If the end user license agreement does not appear during installation of the Microsoft Exchange Server MAPI Client and CDO 1.2.1, or the MAPI32.DLL file is 600 KB or more, the Microsoft Exchange Server MAPI Client and CDO 1.2.1 did not install correctly. The installation appears to have completed successfully, but the Program Files\ExchangeMAPI directory is not installed and the MAPI client is not updated. This occurs if all of the MAPI files were not renamed with the .old file extension before installation.

Increase Exchange 2003 Storage Limits With ADSI

Exchange 2003 has a storage limites of 2GB or 2097151 KB by default. To get around this use Active Directory Services Interface (ADSI Edit) tool. ADSI Edit (adsidedit) is one of Windows Server 2003's support tools. Install the whole support tools package from the Server CD: \support\tools\supptools.msi. Once the two programs files adsiedit.dll and adsiedit.msc are installed, you also get a shortcut on the Start, Programs menu or you can use adsiedit.msc from the Run line.

Note if you copy adsiedit.dll manually then you need to paste into the 'path' for example C: \windows\adsiedit.dll. Then you need to register the dll with:
regsvr32 adsiedit. (If you install from supptools.msi there is no need for this extra step).

The following table displays the equivalent Active Directory attributes for the storage limit properties that are available in the Active Directory Users and Computers snap-in interface or in the Exchange System Manager interface.

Storage limit properties available in the GUI	Equivalent attributes
Issue warning at (KB)	mDBStorageQuota
Prohibit send at (KB)	mDBOverQuotaLimit
Prohibit send and receive at (KB)td>	mDBOverHardQuotaLimit
