Storage Usage
The Storage Usable tab allows administrators to check the amount of storage space used or available in the exchange mailbox, for all users in the organization. For optimal performance, OneNet
generally recommends keeping the total mailbox size for any user to less than 5GB (5120MB). 1. Navigate to Storage Usage from the left hand side of the page.

Total disk space usage is calculated on timely basis (usually once a day). You can however recalculate this manually by clicking on the Recalculate Disk Space button (shown in step 1).
Download Outlook Client
A single user license of Microsoft Outlook 2010, Microsoft Outlook 2013 and Microsoft Outlook 2011 (For Mac OSX) may be included with every Hosted Exchange mailbox (Check with your Account Manager). To download a copy, click “Download Outlook Client” from the Microsoft Exchange Menu. The license keys are provided under the download link.
Please note: The license for these products are only valid for the period in which you are subscribed
to Hosted Exchange. Using this software outside this period is illegal.
In line with OneNet’s aim to continually deliver the latest technology infrastructure and services we are currently in the planning and testing stages of upgrading to Microsoft’s latest email platform – Microsoft Exchange 2013.
The upgrade process should be seamless for most users. However, Microsoft Exchange 2013 no longer supports Microsoft Outlook 2003. If your clients are currently running Outlook 2003 we suggest you speak with them about options to upgrade to a newer version of Outlook.
At a minimum the requirements for Exchange 2013 are: - Outlook 2013
- Outlook 2010 SP1 with November 2012 Cumulative Update (available from
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2687623)
- Outlook 2007 SP3 with November 2012 Cumulative Update (available from
