STM file: STM file means streaming database file created for storing media content separately before the Exchange Server 2007.
Public Folder Database.edb: The Public Folder Database .edb file is a replacement for the Pub.edb file in Exchange Server 2007 onwards.
Mailbox Database.edb: The Mailbox Database.edb file is also a replacement for the Priv.edb file in Exchange Server 2007 onwards.
