It will hold as much mail as you have disk. Tom.

Will the IIS SMTP service care about holding mail for that much time before it can be delivered though? Joe Pochedley "I like deadlines," cartoonist Scott Adams once said.

See the FAQ Appendix H (I believe it is) for more information.

A couple weeks from now, over the long Christmas weekend, we need to take our Exchange server off-line for a few days to perform some maintenance... In the time period it's down, nobody will be in the office so we don't need to worry about disrupring the day-to-day operations of the users... The only problem we can foresee is that incoming email can't be received because the Exchange server will be off and people outside the company will get NDR's because their mail can't be delivered to us (for possibly up to three days)... What can I use as a temporary queue to hold all the incoming email and then will allow me to dump the queued SMTP messages to the Exchange server once it's back up and running? Something simple (and free) is preferred, all I need is a queue to hold the messages while we perform our maintenance and deliver the items when we're through... TIA for any suggestions!
