Perfmon might give a clue (if we could stand that performance hit) and we can monitor disk growth, but does anybody know a simple way to assess how many emails per day are sent both internally and externally.

From BBC newswire Serbian premier assassinated The Serbian Prime Minister, Zoran Djindjic, has been assassinated in the capital, Belgrade. He was shot in front of government offices at around 1300 (1200 gmt) on Wednesday. He was taken to hospital for emergency surgery but a government minister told the BBC's Serbian section that he had died of his wounds. Mr Djindjic, a former mayor of the Serbian capital, was a prominent reformist opposition leader until Slobodan Milosevic was ousted from power in 2000. Unconfirmed Serbian media reports say that two people were arrested at the scene of the shooting. A police source told Reuters news agency that he had been hit twice by large-calibre sniper rifle bullets. The editor of the Fonet news agency, Zoran Sekulich, told BBC World television Mr Djindjic had been shot once in the stomach and once in the back. Enemies On 21 February Mr Djindjic survived what he said was an assassination bid when a lorry swung into the path of his motorcade as he was travelling to Belgrade airport. He later dismissed the incident as a futile effort which could not stop democratic reforms. Correspondents say that Mr Djindjic, 50, made many enemies over his career as a pro-democracy campaigner and then as Serbia's prime minister. He was pivotal in arresting and handing Mr Milosevic over to the war crimes tribunal in The Hague in June 2001. The move opened the way to international aid to the then Yugoslavia. _ 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]

Re: Flusing log files - almost out of space
If you stopped the Exchange services cleanly then the transaction logs are committed to the database. That does not solve the problem with a backup not purging the logs. - Original Message - From: Pat Richard [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Exchange Discussions [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 19, 2003 11:02 AM Subject: Flusing log files - almost out of space NT 4 SP6 (I think) Ex 5.5 SP4 - single org, site, server One problem led to many others. Drive with the log files (also the system drive) ran low on space, so the MTA stopped. I cleared some stuff off the drive to get up to 150MB. MTA started, and it's working. The disk space problem also caused BENT to not run correctly because it couldn't write the catalog to the disk (space was down to 7MB when I got there on Monday). I believe that this caused the Exchange logs to not get flushed. The logs now comprise 3GB of space (and growing). One successful backup has run since, but again, the logs aren't flushed. My question is (to refresh my memory)... Can I stop Exchange, copy the logs to another drive for archiving, then kill the originals, and restart Exchange? If I recall, it should recreate new log files, correct? (I'm making the assumption that the transactions in the logs are committed). It looks like the drive that the store is on has plenty of space (including enough to defrag the store, etc). All services are running fine. But obviously, I need to clear those logs, and want to make sure it's how I remember it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Incident tracking
Can anyone recommend an application that can be used for tracking problems. I am thinking of incident management software, where when a server is down a trouble ticket can be issued and all information about the problem and steps taken to resolve gets logged in a database. This information can then also be used to search against for future problems. I have heard of a product called Remedy, has anyone used that or any other application like it? What are the better products out there? Thanks, any suggestions would be helpful.

Re: cleaning a mailbox
Jeff, you should be able to stop the Exchange services and then delete the priv.edb. Then when you restart the services a new Information Store is created and all mailboxes will be empty. You could also look into using EXMERGE from the resource kit I'm guessing.

Yes it can be useful in DR situations. It provides immediate access to users while a separate issue is resolved with the old priv. Then the two priv.edb files can be merged in a sense using Exmerge.
