Good morning all,
I hope someone could provide me with a few pointers to this rather strange issue.
- Enterprise Vault 9.0.4
- Microsoft Exchange 2010
- Windows 2008 R2 Standard
The Shortcut Content of the Default Exchange Mailbox Policy is set as follows:
Just recently, we have realised that items with embedded graphics do not compress very well, in most occasions the shortcut size is larger than the original item size, which ultimately uses more space in the user's mailbox.
Firstly, has anyone come accross a similar issue? If so, is this a known issue? Are there any work around to avoid this? Has this been addressed in any future version?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Shortcut Size Estimations
1. Where shortcuts are not being created and and the original items are being deleted there is a saving equal to the size of the item.
2. Where shortcuts replace items using custom settings the size is calculated as follows:
3. Where shortcuts replace items but the original body is kept:
4. For calendar items where stripping attachments:
In all cases where the shortcut estimate is larger than the original item, we set the estimate to be equal the size of the item
I hope this Helps !!!

Thank you very much for this information A_J. So is it safe to say that this is expected behaviour?

Good information :)
It's worth remember that if you do use message body then that will be the source of one of the problems that the resultant message in EV will be bigger... and you'll not be reducing the size of the users mailbox, at all.
