I wouldn't move them. Exchange expects to find them in the place they are. Get a full backup done asap. Do it now

I only have a 2gb partition for these files. I'll see about moving them to a different partition. I just did not know what was considered normal.

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?
