What is the purpose of knowing where the virus infected e-mail came from? In
this day and age, most viruses now are using virus infected zombies to send
their filth. Chances are if you received 50 different virus infected
e-mails, they will come from 45 different IP addresses.

 

Now, if you are talking about your outgoing messages, that is the wrong way
to find them, or I should say the least efficient way.

Hi,

 

I want to track incoming and outgoing mails on my exchange 2003 server.
Basically i want to know from which IP address the mail has arrived on
exchange server. In case of a virus mail , anti virus quarantines the
message which is fine, but i would like to know the host which is generating
the mails. Basically i can check for message header in outlook options but
can i find this info on the server it self. Message tracker doesn't give
details about the host it has reviced the mail from. 

 

Regards

Praveen R
