How to obtain the latest service pack for Office 2003
After you install Office
2003 SP2 on the Outlook clients, Outlook users
experience the following behavior when they send messages. Note that the
following behavior occurs when Outlook 2003 is configured to use cached mode,
to use offline mode, or to use a .pst file as the delivery location:
- If the Outlook user's mailbox exceeds the configured size
limit, the message is not sent to the Exchange server. The Outlook user
receives the following error message:
Task 'Microsoft
Exchange Server � Sending' reported error (0x8004060C) : 'The message store has
reached its maximum size. To reduce the amount of data in this message store,
select some items that you no longer need, and permanently (SHIFT + DEL) delete
them.'
Additionally, the Outlook user is prompted to use the Mailbox
Cleanup Wizard. - If a message exceeds the configured size limit on the
Exchange server, the message is not sent to the Exchange server. Additionally,
the Outlook user receives the following error message:
Task 'Microsoft Exchange Server � Sending' reported error
(0x80040610) : 'The message being sent exceeds the message size established for
this user.'
To configure the size limits that are described in this article,
follow these steps:
- Use Exchange System Manager to configure the
Prohibit send at (KB) limit, the Prohibit send and
receive at (KB) limit, and the Sending message size
limit.
- Wait for the Exchange server caches that are described in
the following Knowledge Base article to expire:
327378 Exchange 2000 and Exchange 2003 mailbox size limits are not enforced in a reasonable period of time; fix requires Exchange 2000 SP3
- When the Exchange server caches expire, restart Outlook so
that Outlook recognizes the new limits.
