both have their advantages, but I'd definitly recommend putting them on the server. First, this is one of the purpose of Exchange, store and manage mails. Second, by putting mails on the server, you can do a backup...as long as your backup software allows that (agent for Exchange Server for ARCServe). Its hard to enumerate all the advantages but one thing for sure, store them on the mail server.
1. space- is there enough room on the server to hold everyone's email knowing that some users never delete anything? 2. backup- if the client machine is not backed up and the server is, can users afford to lose all their email?

As I understand it, if individuals mail folders are stored on local PC's then its not possible for them to log into another PC and retrive their new OR old mail. I guess thats OK if theres no PC sharing/hotdesking, but thats not the reality of todays offices.
