Checking Your Exchange Quota

Outlook
Entourage
Mail on Mac OS 10.6 (Snow Leopard)
OWA Premium (Using IE)

Note: OWA Light does not provide you the ability to view your quota usage.

Check Your Quota Using Outlook

1. Login to your Exchange account using Outlook.
2. Right-click on the top level of your Exchange account (usually titled Mailbox - Your Name, e.g., Mailbox - Katie Rose). Then choose Properties for "Mailbox - Your Name"...
   
3. From the General tab, click the Folder Size... button.
   
4. In the Folder Size dialog, click on the Server Data tab. The number in the Total size (including subfolders) field is your total quota usage. (The default maximum quota for all Exchange users is currently 1000000 KB.)
   
   You can scroll through the list to view how much space each folder in your Exchange account is using (including your Calendar, Contacts, etc.). You will want to pay attention to the Total Size column for that information.
   
5. Once you are finished reviewing your quota information, click the Close button. Then click OK.

Check Your Quota Using Entourage

1. Login to your Exchange Entourage account.
2. Click on the top level of your Notre Dame Exchange account.
   
3. Go to the Edit menu and select Folder Properties.

After a few seconds, the quota information for your account will display in the Total size (with subfolders) field, as well as a list below with how much space each specific folder (including contacts, calendar, and each mailbox folder) within your account is using. (The default maximum quota for all Exchange users is currently 1000000 KB.)
   
5. Once you have finished reviewing your quota usage, click OK.
