That should be it, unless you have changed something in your services. Try copying it there and see what happens (it shouldn't hurt anything). Stop and start the smtp service, and you should see it dis-appear post-hast as it is delivered. -----Original Message----- From: Tom Howarth [mailto:tom@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]=20 Sent: Monday, November 17, 2003 12:36 PM To: msexchange@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [msexchange] Re: Recovery of Mail on Bad Mail folder Next question, where would I find an active "queue" folder there is a queue folder on the same level as "bad mail" but it appears empty, it this the one or should I be looking elsewhere. -----Original Message----- From: Brian Politis [mailto:bpolitis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]=3D20 Sent: Monday, November 17, 2003 5:27 PM To: msexchange@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [msexchange] Re: Recovery of Mail on Bad Mail folder You should be able to directly copy the contents of badmail directly into any active "queue" folder and the smtp service will deliver them! -----Original Message----- From: Tom Howarth [mailto:tom@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]=3D3D20 Sent: Monday, November 17, 2003 12:26 PM To: msexchange@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [msexchange] Recovery of Mail on Bad Mail folder Please forgive my ignorance, =3D3D3D20 I need a bit of help on recovery of missing mails. Over the weekend my boss configured a new connector in our exchange server but at the same time managed to muck up, mail relaying/routing. We could mail out but not receive. All mail was being received by our server but was disappearing into the ether. We have now got mail running again, but are missing mails form Sunday morning until approx 2:30 this afternoon (Monday). I have found a directory called "Bad Mail" that holds a lot of files dated yesterday and today, the last were placed in there just prior to our resumption of normal service. I have two questions=3D3D3D20 1: is this where our missing mail is? 2: if so how do I get it out and onto the correct recipitant, or if not Where is our missing mail and again how do it recover it Regards Tom Howarth =3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D= 3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3 D=3D 3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D=3D3D3D Use the below link for Archives, and to set your preferences. http://thethin.net/exchangelist.cfm =3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D= 3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D=3D3D Use the below link for Archives, and to set your preferences. http://thethin.net/exchangelist.cfm =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D Use the below link for Archives, and to set your preferences. http://thethin.net/exchangelist.cfm ===================== Use the below link for Archives, and to set your preferences. http://thethin.net/exchangelist.cfm
