Brian,

Thanks very much again.

So, it sounds like I can have all e-mail delivered to "Mailbox - Username",
delete the "Personal Folders", remove the pst file, and end up with both
Exchange e-mail and POP3 e-mail stored on the Exchange server (allowing for
the fact that I have to manage user volume). Am I understanding things
right? Thanks.

Personal Folders ARE a PST, usually. When they're on an Exchange server,
they're usually named "Mailbox - person's name" or "person's name".

When you use an Exchange mailbox as the delivery location, a PST is not
required, even if you have POP accounts in the mail profile. All POP
account messages will be delivered to the Exchange mailbox, even if you
have more than one POP account. Both Exchange and the POP accounts always
share the delivery location.

Some of us use PSTs even when we don't have POP accounts. For example,
where I work we have a 50 MB limit on our Exchange mailboxes, so I have a
PST (i.e., Personal Folders) into which I file messages as I deal with
them. All my other Outlook data (Calendar, Contacts, Tasks, etc.) remain
in the mailbox, but since my email is the largest part of my Outlook data,
I keep that in a PST.
