http://www.MSExchange.org/

Hi all,

This is my MS Exchange server background:

Ms Exchange 5.5 Enterprise server SP3
Windows NT4.0 Advance Cluster Server SP6a
MTAData folder size now: 7GB
Problem:

Our HQ server having a long queue at MTA sending to
our branches and cause the MTA service hang and stop
responding when tried to restart the service.

I have run MTACheck /V tools but it seems like no
corrupted to the database. When I tried to restart all
Exchange service, MTA and IMS failed to start.

Is it possible to me to remove all the DB**.dat files
in MTAdata folder and restart the servive to recreate 
the queue?

Anybody have a method with least steps to be done
because I need to up the service immediately.

Thanks.
