Public Folder Session Configuration

I am replicating folders from an Exchange 2003 server to our new Exchange 2007 server. In the replication tab of each public folder on the Exchange 2003 box, there's a "Use public store schedule" option under "Public folder replication interval". How do I set the public store schedule so that I don't have to configure each folder (or at least each parent folder) individually?

I saw in another article a reference to a "Public Folder Session Configuration" window, but I can't find it in the Exchange Management Console.

What exactly are you trying to achieve? If you want the public folder content to replicate immediately then it should be set to always run at the server level and then all the public folders should be set to use the store settings.

When I started the folders replicating they generated a high volume of traffic which resulted in a major slowdown for users navigating through Outlook (we keep cached exchange mode turned off). The high volume of traffic ceased early this morning, but then restarted promptly at noon. I wanted to check the replication configuration to see if it was set to start a task at noon and then to possibly temporarily turn it off during the day (letting it replicate overnight).

Thanks Simon - I was concerned that something was amiss because the day after I began replication, there was minimal network traffic from 6:30AM until noon, when it promptly got heavy again. It's been a few days since and everything is now calm so I think I'm in good shape. Seems odd though that there would be something called a 'default setting' without any explanation as to what that setting would be or how to modify the 'universal' default.
