This step is recommended by Microsoft But you can pass this step while configuring Exchange2007 Cluster Continues Replication. If you still want to work by the book and follow Microsoft recommendations just do the following steps .

What is MaxDumpsterSizePerStorageGroup.?

Well first you need to know what you need to configure, so the Transport Dumpster have few Parameters that give you the ability to set the size of the Transport Dumpster Queue based on single Storage Group .in this section you can set the size with 1.25 times from the Maximum massage send in your Exchange 2007 environment .

Example :

If you approve users to send E-mail with the size of 1MB you need to configure the MaxDumpsterSizePerStorageGroup parameter with a value of 1.25 MB.

Another parameter you can get control on the time massage remain in the Transport Dumpster Queue . The parameter we want to set is MaxDumpsterTime the time you want to configure need to be as follow : if you want that users massages remain in the Queue for 2 days you should set the parameter to be 02:00:00:00 (2 days).
