Thanks Daneil, Here is the the senario. I have enabled the log file in the properties of SMTP server general tab. If i send any email from yahoo or hotmail i can easily locate that email entry in that log file. But the email which my server is droping/rejecting I can't find in that log file but those people have sent me the log file which shows my server name in their log file. So that reason I am little confuse. If u can help me out i wil really appreciate the log file of their server is here where my server is showing as mail.leye.com[208.252.155.131]: Thanks in advance Basit Feb 19 13:14:34 area51 postfix/pickup[26823]: CA63419204: uid=104 from=<db> Feb 19 13:14:34 area51 postfix/cleanup[26891]: CA63419204: message-id=<20040219181434.CA63419204@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Feb 19 13:14:34 area51 postfix/qmgr[6871]: CA63419204: from=<db@xxxxxxxxx>, size=305, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Feb 19 13:14:57 area51 postfix/smtp[26892]: connect to mail.leye.com[208.252.155.131]: server dropped connection (port 25) Feb 19 13:14:57 area51 postfix/smtp[26892]: CA63419204: to=<abasit@xxxxxxxx>, relay=none, delay=23, status=deferred (connect to mail.leye.com[208.252.155.131]: server dropped connection) -----Original Message----- From: CalderÃn Vilches Luis Daniel [mailto:Daniel@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thu 2/19/2004 4:56 PM To: [ExchangeList] Cc: Subject: [exchangelist] RE: How to check the Logs Of exchange http://www.MSExchange.org/ If those messages are from outside your organization (through SMTP) you could check the logs of your virtual SMTP server, if you configured it to do so (Logging Enabled).Feb 19 13:14:34 area51 postfix/pickup[26823]: CA63419204: uid=104 > from=<db> > Feb 19 13:14:34 area51 postfix/cleanup[26891]: CA63419204: > message-id=<20040219181434.CA63419204@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Feb 19 13:14:34 area51 postfix/qmgr[6871]: CA63419204: > from=<db@xxxxxxxxx>, > size=305, nrcpt=1 (queue active) > Feb 19 13:14:57 area51 postfix/smtp[26892]: connect to > mail.leye.com[208.252.155.131]: server dropped connection (port 25) > Feb 19 13:14:57 area51 postfix/smtp[26892]: CA63419204: > to=<abasit@xxxxxxxx>, relay=none, delay=23, status=deferred (connect to > mail.leye.com[208.252.155.131]: server dropped connection) Check the log path in the properties of your SMTP virtual server, general tab, press the properties button at the bottom of that window and you will see the logs path. If logging have been configured with proper level of detail, you should see info about every SMTP connection to your server.
