To resolve this issue, install the following update rollup:
2530488 Description of Update Rollup 3 for Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 3
After you apply the rollup update, you can configure Exchange Server 2007 to check whether the item size exceeds the limit by creating the following registry subkey:
Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeIS\Public-
<GUID>Name: Check Decreasing Post Size
Value type: DWORD
Important If you set the registry subkey to
0 or the registry subkey does not exist, Exchange Server 2007 checks the item size only when the item size increases. If you set the registry subkey to
1, Exchange Server 2007 checks the item size either when it increases or when it decreases.
To enable this functionality, you must create and then configure this registry subkey on all the Exchange Server 2007 servers that host public folders. You do not have to create and then configure this registry subkey on the Exchange Server 2007 servers that do not host public folders. Additionally, you must create and then configure this registry subkey for each public folder database on the particular server where you want to enable this functionality.
After you configure this registry subkey, you must restart the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service to enable this functionality.
