Exchange online "limit"

[EasyUp Web Hosting]

Anyone else noticed that downloading mail from your exchange online mailbox is limited to 2mbps? Can't find proper info on google about this, but is there a way to change it? No use having a 100mbps fibre connection and then your mailbox only downloads @ 2mbps. :-/

Paid Account on Business has double.
Using GCloud VPN allows up to 1Gbps but you pay the bandwidth of the VPN.

All Exchange account has limits. Exchange has a limit of 500MB per user per hour. Max 2GB a day. Similar to google. Just cannot find the usage email. I will post as soon as I find the email.

I generally find the speeds a bit slow, but not that slow.

My issue is, we have user with mailboxes with 40GB in size, so if I give them a new computer, it takes ages to download the mailbox and it seems to only download 4GB at a time and then stopping at 1byte. I then have to close outlook and then open again, before it starts with the next 4GB chunk.

Going to check if I get the same limit when using pop.

PS: Don't post any comments about these 40GB mailboxes... I know my users are using Outlook as a filing system. Nothing I can do about that.

Bandwidth is limited to 500MB per hour, 10GB per day or the number of messages(3600 Messages per Hour). The limit of Office Home users are the same as Office 365 Business Essentials.
Speed should then limit to 1MB/s and calculated every 36 seconds intervals.

Yip, same limit on PoP.

Thanx @Dark Agent.

Why not just move his pst file over from the old computer..? That will already have the 40GB's worth of mail in it and no need to download it all again..
