SYMPTOMS
========

On the Advanced tab of the Mailbox Properties dialog box, a Microsoft Exchange
administrator can set limits to restrict the size of messages delivered to that
mailbox. However, even though this limit is set, messages larger than the limit
are still delivered to the mailbox.

STATUS
======

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server
versions 4.0 and 5.0. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
