John,

  What you suggest is not a rant, but sound advise.

  I would also suggest to all to make a complaint to moderator about
this behavior, as I have.

Thanks, Robert

Sorry Andrew, but you asked for it.

 

<RANT ON>

 

Once again, Andrew is claiming that he should not have to take common
sense simple basic steps in preparing to use software before actually
attempting to implement it.

 

Andrew, we have tried to explain to you time and again that to be a
professional in the IT business means taking responsibility to know and
understand what the implications are for what we do and to take steps to
mitigate potential risk to ourselves and our employer/clients before we
take such steps. Those steps must included at the least review of
documentation provided by the software vendor. If we fail to take those
rudimentary basic steps, we are putting ourselves and our
employer/client at undo risk. 

 

If we continue to take undo risks, we need to ask ourselves do we need
to change our way of thinking, or do we even need to change our job
function.

 

<RANT OFF>

 

Armored and flame proof suit on, fire away.

No harm done Bob, but how many people do you think actually takes the
time to read every single white page microsoft publishes; including
deployment guide? I should have posted that I had found out the location
by searching on google. I also found a better tool for reading the
archived messages than the one Mark posted. 

 

Regards,

Andrew

Andrew,

 

Don't take this the wrong way but you might take a little time and read
up on IMF and deployment.

Chapter 4 tells you where the archived messages are kept.

 

On the Intelligent Message Filtering tab, from the list in When blocking
messages, select the action that you want Intelligent Message Filter to
take when it assigns a message an SCL rating above the specified
threshold. Choose from the following actions: 

*

Archive to archive all messages marked as UCE with a rating above the
specified threshold. Archived messages are saved to the archive
directory. This directory is in the root directory of the Queue
directory specified on the Messages tab of the SMTP virtual server
properties. By default, the archive directory is Exchsrvr\Mailroot\vsi
n\UCEArchive, where n is the SMTP virtual server instance number. By
default, the \Exchsrvr directory is created in the <drive
letter>:\Program Files parent directory. You can review messages in the
archive directory by opening them in Notepad or using Microsoft Outlook
Express. If you discover a legitimate e-mail message that has been
archived, you can resubmit the message by placing it in the
Exchsrvr\Mailroot\vsi n\pickup directory. The SMTP service will then
deliver the e-mail message to the appropriate mailbox. 

 

 

Use IMF Companion to view the archived messages.  (Google for it)
