Hello,
I have a client who has just added 10 new shared mail directories.
This brings the total for that mail area (only one in use) to 35
directories. What he wants to do is spread the files accross all the
directories in the area, then close the area and start fresh in a new
one. The problem is that niether Balance Mail Areas or Reoganize Shared
Directories is having the desired effect. He has a plan which will
reduce the size of the .DIR files, if he can spread the files in them
more evenly.
Can the file in the directories be redistributed?
Derek Street.

The short answer is no. There isn't any functionality to do this.
It would be relatively hard to do, because you'd have to go and find
all the pointers to the documents you'd moved and rewrite them, because
the shared area forms part of the name.
The normal method is to make a lot of new shared areas, close all the
old ones, and wait for a bit. Encourage your users to delete old
messages during this period. Then compress the directories.
