Mailbox Size limits and a growing Calendar

[headrush]

Having an issue with Mailbox size over set limit, but the size is
mainly in the calendar. Anyone have any ideas on how to minimize the
size of the calendar? I tried to delete all items that were of no use
and there is nothing of great size in there. I tried searching for any
files larger than 10kb and nothing larger than 100kb.(There was only
one file) Removed exchange account from local pc and readded, But
calendar size still above 200mb... Out of everything we deleted there
was no change in calendar size.


Environment:
Exchange Server 2000
Outlook 2002
Windows XP Professional


Thanks in advance
- Jeremy

There is nothing to archive I deleted all items! But the size is still
the same. Should i try deleteing the exchange user and readd an account
for them.

help!

Did you verify that all items were gone using a Table view?
