SUMMARY
The Microsoft Exchange Server message tracking logs can be used in a
variety of ways to help determine the health of the Exchange Server
messaging system. In deciding upon message size limitations for individual
mailboxes, message transfer agents (MTAs), and gateways, it may be helpful
to look at the size of messages sent for a 24-hour period. This method can
also be used to help understand the load that a particular component was
under during a time of heavy system use.
MORE INFORMATIONTo use message tracking to identify oversize messages:
Column A contains the message ID or MTS ID of the message. Column G contains the distinguished name (DN) of the originating mailbox; the DN is used to identify the mailbox. Make sure that mailboxes that send or receive large messages that affect server performance negatively have limits placed on them. Column I contains the size of the message in bytes. More detailed information on the format of the message tracking logs can be found in the Books Online, in the Microsoft Exchange Server Administrator's Guide, Chapter 17, page 64. Crystal Reports, in the BackOffice Resource Kit, can generate better reports by using information from the Exchange Server Tracking Logs. Additional query words:
