OK, so if it is set at 1,900, does that refer to each possible subfolder (we have several hundred)? &nbsp;<br />
<br />
If so, then there's no way to really manage the database as a whole?

Correct. It's really just the same as normal mailbox databases. You can set default &quot;per mailbox&quot; limits at the database level, and override them individually for specific mailboxes, but you can't set a limit on the database as a whole.

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
When I view the EMC and look at the Public Folder Database properties, I see that the &quot;Issue warning at (MB):&quot; is set for 1900. &nbsp;The actual database size is in excess of 6 gig, so I would have expected that the folder managers would receive a message stating that the folders are exceeding the warning limit and yet they do not.<br />
<br />
My intent was to increase this limit, however it would seem that this might not be the correct place to modify it, or it is not working as I expected.<br />
<br />
I am hoping that someone here can help me understand why I am not receiving warning messages on my public folder database.
