I dumped the whole application event log to a text file, nothing. Well, one thing: Three days before a mail was received in temporary file C:\EXCHSRVR\imcdata\in\HFHNJBAD. However the previous one was HFHNJBA1 and the next one HFHNJBAF so I don't think that's relevant.
With XFOR: 4037 Event Starting Internet Mail Service, 1067 IMC Error [Q168883] (no luck) and Q165505 XADM: How to View/Delete Messages in MTS-IN and MTS-OUT Queues I can see what is present in MTS-OUT. I could just delete thos messages (not very nice), is there any way to set them undeliverable (send back NDR to internal user) or extract the data ? Going through evey one with mdbvue32 while writing down sender/recipients/date in order to notifiy internal users is not the best solution (lengthy queue). I'm looking for the documentation of the message properties I can see i that way, where can I find that ? Heiko Herold -- -- PREVINET S.p.A.
