Is there a command or other way to directly delete the contents of the mailboxes on MS exchange server. We are running a W2003 SBS platform with MS exchange. There does not appear to be any menu or other function to allow admins to clean out the mailboxes and some are getting a little large.

Exchange Server Mailboxes

I believe that there is a storage quota setting available for the Exchange. If you set it so that people start losing their emails, they'll get the hint.
The other thing to do is to set up Outlook to deliver to a local folder. While that's less than desireable in some cases, it removes stuff from the server automatically.
