The link for "UPDATE MAY 2013: New TechNet Content: "Migrate Legacy Public Folders to Exchange Online" is broke.

We've just migrated to o365 preview and have uploaded our public folder data. We are finding that it runs really really slowly when you are searching for anything now.

I'm not sure that the public folders are caching on pcs or not.

I'm wondering whether there should be limits on the number of messages that are stored within a single public folder?

I remember being told to keep all top level mailbox folders to a limit of 5000 messages in order to keep outlook functioning at a decent speed.

Is this feature compatible with Oulook 2010?

Does anyone know if there is a cost (money) associated which each public folder or is there a cost to the public folder mailbox which holds the public folders?

Hi Jon, not sure why you got this advise. I am just using a Trial of Office365 E3 and this has public folder support that seem to work pretty much the same way it did in SBS2011 where you can mail-enable and give permissions to different users.

I was on the phone with Office 365 Support today and I did ask about the release date of the upgraded Office 365. She told me it will be early May 2013.

I really hope this comes out soon.

Public Folders has been the only thing keeping me back from moving my clients over to Office 365!
