In the past (on 2007 mind you) I’ve used exmon and also Scott Oseychik’s guide to looking for patterns in logs, it’s a bit hit and miss though, but on a couple of occasions has located rogue clients

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that KB doesn't apply. And I'll attempt to get it removed. It applied in the case when you had Exchange 2003 sp1 installed on a workstation and you had Exchange 2003 sp2 installed on a server (or versus). 7638 is the same version. The .1 vs. .2 doesn't

Exmon (Exchange User Monitor) is my client of choice these days. It can very rapidly lead you to a culprit (look at the Log bytes column). My recent experience has been a set of customers who all used a CRM server that was a bit out of date. It wouldn’t be all of them, but of the four customers
