Title: RE: Exchange Server Log Files

Are you talking about Exchange 5.5? If so, the logs you are looking for are in the "tracking.log" share of your IMS server(s).

The log files are created one per day, and are tab delimited.

The log file names, and log timestamps are in GMT, so be careful!

Each entry consists of one or more lines followed by a blank line.

Here's a code snippet to parse the initial line of each entry:

    ($msgid, $eventnum, $timestamp, $gateway, $partner,
     $remoteid, $originator, $priority, $length,
     $dummy1, $dummy2, $dummy3, $nrecip) = split /\t/;

Then you need to read $nrecip lines (one for each recipient). Then read the blank line. Ie:

        for ($i = 0 ; $i < $nrecip ; $i++ ) {
            ($recip, $dummy4) = split /[\t\n]/, <>;
        }
        <>

I don't remember what the fields that i've parsed into various "$dummy" variables were used for - something I didn't need.

See http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q173/3/64.asp for event number definitions.

This is Off Topic...

My Exchange Server manuals don't contain any reference to a Log file
containing records for Emails that were relayed.  I have need to verify
whether certain emails I am sending via an app I wrote are actually relaying
though the server.

Can anyone point me to a log file containing this information?

Thanks,

Adam Frielink
