Hello Guys, Have an existing exchange server now. I got users who started using MS Outlook 2010. A mailbox quota of 4GB (4096000KB) has been assigned to each user but upon checking it in Outlook 2010 (file>Info>Mailbox Cleanup) the mailbox quota is only 3.77+ (not even near to 4GB)... I'm wondering how MS Outlook 2010 derive/convert/interpret mailbox quota that has been set in Exchange? What will be the exact figure should I set in Exchange>mailbox quota in KB so that it will show 1GB; 2GB; 4GB 10GB, 20GB... in Outlook 2010? Enlightenment will really be appreciated.. thanks!

Hi jaque128, Rich is right. When you want it show as 4GB, you should set it to 4194304000KB.
