Question : DELETE ALL MAIL IN A USERS INBOX THROUGH EXCHANGE, POSSIBLE?

I need to delete all the mail from one user on exchange.
It acts as a type of forwarder with a program i am using, and what it does is basically copies ALL the messages sent between all of my other users on excahnge, to its inbox. so right now there are 150,000,000 messages in its inbox!!! does anyone know a quick way to delete this users mailbox? i cant imagine anything being "quick" but it freezes everything up when i try to delete anything from webmail, or if i set up the mailbox in outlook on my exh server.

Answer : DELETE ALL MAIL IN A USERS INBOX THROUGH EXCHANGE, POSSIBLE?

of course you can, it's pretty easy:

go to exchange System Manager

under administrative groups, open your domain and the SERVERS
open your exchange server and select the FIRST STORAGE GROUP
Select the MAILBOX STORE THEN GO TO MAILBOXES

Locate the corresponding Mailbox on this list and Right click on it

Under Exchange Tasks, select delete Mailbox

the mailbox and all its messages will be deleted

now if you want you can right click on the mailbox again and select purge to permamently delete everything.

If you need to continue using this mailbox you are going to have to create it again

good luck
