However I'm curious to know why you need attachments stored in the
file system.
Because many of these attachments may be large (>50MB), and over time the
database can grow to be unweildy. Currently that's our problem with our
exchange server setup (people keep emailing these files back and forth as it
stands now *shudder*). The upside of storing attachments in a filesystem is
easier access from other clients (as the other poster suggested), less
likelihood of corruption on large databases (our Exchange DB is 200+ GB
right now), less likelihood of backup problems, copy-only-what's-changed
backups, and quicker backup and restore time.
