Thanks Todd!<br />

I didn't know you could assign policies to individual mailboxes. &nbsp;I thought the policy was a global setting for all mailboxes. &nbsp;I set his mailbox to the default global throttling policy, and then set him back to our custom policy. &nbsp;This seems to have reset the count for him and he's able to send again.<br />

We have a Throttling Policy in Exchange 2010 that sets the RecipientRateLimit to 1000. &nbsp;We have a user that got a virus and was sending tons of emails. &nbsp;Well he hit the rate limit and now is unable to send email for 24 hours. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Now that we've cleaned up his device and changed his password, is there a way to reset the RecipientRateLimit count for this individual?<br />
<br />
Thanks!

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.
