Hows it going Hunter? Long time.

LOL. It was going great until two of our stores filled up the
mapiNamedProperty table.

Hey, DEC added Exchange stuff to become TEC. Almost like MEC. Y'all should
go...http://www.directoryexpertsconference.com/

I am dealing with this same problem of Named Properties. Here is what I
don't understand - If the only solution is to move mailboxes to a new store,
which effectively clears the database/named props table, why not just build
that functionality into Exchange, a rolling database.

Instead of "I'm going to store every single named property until I blow up
somewhere around 32,000".
Why not "I'll store the first 10,000 I receive and then every named property
after that insert at the top of the list and the bottom one gets deleted" -
Problem solved

What if the named properties are still in messages in the database?

Moving all the mailboxes doesn't "fix" anything if the messages with
the named properties are still in the mailboxes.
