Public Folder (phone journal) Freezes

[Markus]

Hi all,

I´searching for quite a while for a problem with some public folders.

We have some userers with various outlook versions from 2000 to 2007 with
the problem that when they are triying to access public folders that are
defined as phone journal with a number of 50K + entries they are getting no
respone from outlook and outlook freezes... but... the curious thing about
that is that not all users are having trouble and even one user
(Terminalserver user) had the problem... only sometimes...

The Size of the largest public folder where I have trouble with is 150 MB
with 69K objects.

I have no idea what it could be...

maybe a timeout issue.. but how can I tweak it?

ANY ideas are welcome.

Thx

Markus

Is everyone using terminal services? It's probably related to the folder
size and network activity - if the folder is not cached locally it needs to
load everything when its opened and that is a lot of network traffic. Check
with the server side
(http://www.microsoft.com/communities/newsgroups/en-us/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.exchange.misc)
for tweaks, but I think the only tweak that will help is archiving the
folder -can you move the older items to another folder? A subfolder of this
one would be ok - the items in it only load if the folder is opened.

no, only few are using ts.
I have older items in another folder... I have one folder for every year.
