Hi everone.  
Heres the scenario.  Using Small Business Server 2000 with
POP3 connector.  This polls my external emaila ccount and
puts it into my Exchange email which i access via Outlook

the E00.log I have contains a reference to an old .EDB
location so each time I start up, the ESE goes and reads
all the transaction logs and when it hits E00.log it
aborts saying that it can not find a database referenced

Does anyone have an idea how long it would take to run
Exmerge against a 6.5 GB Windows 2000 edb database? Also,
if the stm database is about the same size, is it actually
processing 13 GB of data, or does it just pull from the

Does any have any idea what the best way is to restrict access so that the
admin cannot open other user's mailboxes.
Thanks!

OK here goes...
We have a newer Exchange 2000 server that was ordered
before I came here.  It only had two mirrored 18 Gig drives
installed for everything...OS, programs, database etc.  

I have a Windows 2000 (SP3) machine running Exchange 2000 (SP) that has
recently been presenting some problems.  Specifically:
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager

Last Thursday I turned on Symantec's Antivirus scanning
and enabled spam control.  Things seemed to be ok but a
large number of messages got blocked.  This morning a
large number of messages, contacts, tasks, and calendar

after updating the Exchange Server with SP4 the
information store don't start. The EventLog shows an error
ID 7024. I search into the knowledgebase and found the
article 283971.

I have a user sending a mail to a group of E-mail
addresses (single addresses separated with Semicollon),
some of the addresse was not abel to recieve mail and i
got an NDR , okay thats fine, but every time I reboot the

My SystemMailbox is missing.  I followed KB 316622 to recreate the
SystemMailbox manually but I don't know how to use Ldp.exe to determine the
ObjectGUD of the Mailbox Store.  Can anyone elaborate ?
Thank you very much

We are creating a second Exchange server that will hold
some of our user mailboxes. Can I restore from tape the
first Exchange servers information store to a different
server and mount it as a seperate store. If not what is

does the priv.edb and pub.edb have size limits in exchange
2000 like the limit of 16 gig in exchange 5.5

My Exchange 2000 IS crashed and I had to restore it from
an old backup.  I have the logs since the restore, but the
signatures do not match.  Is ther anyway to get the logs
to replay?  Also when I did the restore from a veritas

I have trawled the Exchange 2K news to find a solution to this one to no
avail.
We have Exchange 2000 SP2 on a SBS 2000 server (W2K SP3) and McAfee
GroupShield Exchange 4.5 running alongside. All AOK for 18months.

My store.exe keep on 100% CPU. I have already re-install
SP3 but doesn't help. When the problem appears, I always
re-boot. Sometimes it last for few hours and sometimes it
last for few mins. I'm thinking of recreate the MDBDATA
