A mailbox database is a database for storing mailboxes. The mailbox database manages the data in mailboxes, tracks deleted messages and mailbox sizes, and assists in message transfers. A mailbox database is stored as an Exchange database (.edb) file.

This topic lists the management tasks that you can perform for mailbox databases, and includes links to topics that will help you complete the tasks. Unless otherwise noted, these tasks can be performed by using the Exchange Management Console or by running commands and scripts in the Exchange Management Shell:
