Information Store

The information store is the central repository for all messages on a Microsoft Exchange Server computer. Each server can have two information stores: the public information store, which holds all public folders and their information, such as custom forms; and the private information store, which holds all private folders and their information, such as messages belonging to individual mailboxes. In addition, the client can have a personal folder file that consists of folders stored on the client's computer.

For more information about viewing or setting properties for public folders and mailboxes, see the following chapters:

• Chapter 5, "Setting Up Mailboxes"
• Chapter 6, "Configuring Public Folders"
• Chapter 7, "Setting Up Your Site"
• Chapter 9, "Replicating Public Folders"

Getting to the Information Store property pages

1. In the Administrator window, choose Servers, and then select a server.
2. Select the public information store or the private information store you want to configure.
