I can't seem to log smtp messages that are relayed from a remote server. I have enabled protocol logging on the receive connector. I am testing this by telneting into exchange 2010 from the remote server and sending a test message. The message arrives okay but I can't seem to find record of it in any of the logs. Where might I find it in the logs?

Are you sure that the logging is set on the correct connector that the application is using?Sukh

Yes, please make sure you have enabled logging on the right receive connector. After confirm enable logging on the right receive connector, resend email to have a try. Thanks, EvanEvan Liu TechNet Community Support

I enabled logging on all receive connectors.

Try restarting the Exchange Transport Service.James Chong MCITP | EA | EMA; MCSE | M+, S+ Security+, Project+, ITIL msexchangetips.blogspot.com

Restarted transport service and still no log entry.

Silly question, how did you enable and where are you looking?Sukh

Not a silly question. I am a newbie. In EMC under connector properties set Protocol Logging level to Verbose. Enabled for all connectors including Send Connector also. Viewing log under .\TransportRoles\Logs\ProtocolLog\smtpReceive & smtpSend

The location hasn't been changed for the log has it? Get-TransportServer | fl *log*Sukh

Yes, and I am getting other information in the logs just not for the test message I am sending.

I cant test right noe, not until tomorrow, but try using the application and sending a message.Sukh

Hi Jeff, well what information are you looking for ? is it something you wanted to see the complete message tracking. Thanks, Ashwini KumarKnow more about Messaging :-)

I'm looking for any sign of the message in the logs. The message is received by the recipient but I find NO sign of it in any of the logs. Same result if the message is sent from within the application. When messages are relayed shouldn't I see them in the logs?
