If you system is running OK at the moment, I would recommend turning on
circular logging and let it flush the logs, then make a good backup and then
disable circular logging, you might want to consider purchasing an extra HD
just for the log files.

Thanks for the reply.
I understand that I need to backup to remove the logs. But my problem is
the backup is failing because there is no diskspace. Most of the space is
being taken up by uncommitted logs from yesterday and today. So my question
is, what is the worst case scenario if I just delete these logs to free up
some space?

You need to do an exchange aware backup to remove the logs from mdbdata dir
- use the eseutil /mk (something like that) to find the committed log files
which can be deleted.
Win2k backup is Exchange aware.

We're having some serious diskspace issues with our exchange 2k box. All of
the viruses being quarantined are part of the problem. We also have a ton
of exchange logs that are sitting around. The problem is we don't have time
to run a backup before the disk fills up and the backup fails. Is it ok to
just delete the logs? I know this may affect backing up today, but we
really, really need to free up some space.
Any help would be great. Thanks
