Mailbox and Mail folders - Limit size

[Barbican]

We are using outlook 2007 and received a lot of email. To make sure we don't
store to many email on our computer, we would like to know how we could set
up a limit on the size of email we can keep in the mailbox and the mail
folders(when we use mailbox cleanup, we can see 1 computer already reach 2GB).
Please can you let me know how to set up the limit like this they will
receive a message when their mailbox is over the limit. At the moment it
seems that we don't have any limit.

Sorry no. What do you mean exactly "nothing changed"?

7000kb on outlook storage but still I didn't recive any message to reduce my
storage.
