In Exchange 2010, how can I remove the mailbox size quota?
I'm currently migrating email boxes from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2010 but keep receiving errors since the size of the mailboxes exceed the quota limit allowed on the new Exchange 2010 server (see the screenshot).
How can I completely remove this Exchange 2010 mailbox size quota?

SBS is all wizard driven, you're not suppose to administer via Exchange Management Console.

Thank you - for clarity, default mailbox sizes/limts on SBS2011 are set through User Roles.
To be aware, *if* limits are set through EMC, then these do not appear to be reflected in the SBS Console. Assuming all the SBS Console wizards do is set things appropriately in Exchange, then you can end up with an inconsistent view on SBS by managing such things through EMC.

In SBS2011, you manage users Storage Quota via the Console, account properties, E-Mail properites. There you have Enforce the storage quotas and a Quota size which is 2.0GB by default.
However, in Mailbox properites (Exchange Management Console) there is no "storage quota" as such, just the mailbox limits as specified above. Changing a users individual Storage quota results in their Mailbox limts being changed. However, changing the default mailbox limits (EMC) seems to have no effect on individual users Storage Quota. For example, removing all default limits (EMC) does not result in individual users Storage Quota being disabled (SBS Console).
I'm trying to find the best/proper way to increase all users mailbox quotas, but aside from on the individual users account properties (SBS Console) there is no mention of Storage Quota specifically anywhere in the EMC (or for example Set-Mailbox powershell command).
All seems very disjointed!
