5-10 minutes? That's terrible! It should be every 12 minutes! Those are transaction logs. They are created as email traffic is created. Someone sends that 100MB mpeg of Scharff in a pink dress (you know the one!) then the transaction logs will be created a little faster than that...
William -----Original Message----- From: Skip Taylor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, January 16, 2002 10:21 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: MDBDATA Log Files How often should Exchange be writing MDBDATA log files? Our Exchange server appears to write a new 5mb log file every 5 to 10 minutes. I searched the FAQs and Archives but did find an answer. Here's our system. Single Server Exchange 5.5 SP 3 NT 4.0 SP 5 550 users Is this normal? Is this a Mail Loop? If so how can I find it? Is some one relaying mail off my server? If so how can I stop it? Thanks, Skip Taylor, MCSE Network Administrator Jordan, Jones, & Goulding ____________ _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
