APM 2.0 looks amazing.  I have question about how much customization you can perform.  An example would be to discover information about mailboxes on Exchange 2003.  Exchange exposes certain mailbox statistics via the Exchange_Mailbox WMI class.  Is there a way to customize APM 2.0 or better yet, write a report that would allow one to pull statistics for a single user using the MailboxGUID or LegacyDN WMI properties.

Better yet, can I write a report that would show me all the users with mailbox sizes over 1 GB?  

How would this be done in APM 2.0?  I've seen on the web lots of C and C# code that can do this and I'm assuming that this would not be necessary in APM 2.0

Thanks!

 Thanks for compliments.  Regarding what you're looking for, I'd recommend surfing Microsoft's website or Exchange specialist websites.  If that info is available via WMI, you can write an APM monitor to fetch it. 

Now showing all the users with mailbox over 1GB is probably not APM.  At that point, you're moving out of the monitoring domain and more into configuration management of Exchange.
