Hi Roger,

You can change this via the SetMailbox -RulesQuota PowerShell command. A valid value is a number from 32 to 256 kilobytes (32768 to 262144 bytes). For example, if you want to change this limit for user1 to 256 KB, run the following command:

Set-Mailbox -Identity user1 -RulesQuota 262144

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Steve Fan

Yes the maximum quota is set to be 256KB, you can set the custom value in between 64KB to 256KBs.

So the maximum rule quota is 256KB and we cannot have more than that.
