Hi.
Our company had a problem this morning which we also had about a month =
ago. It seems that messages outgoing to the Internet were not going out =
this morning. (Slow at first - some got through a few at a time. Then =
they stopped altogether.).
[This is Exchange 2000 - single server]
The last time this happened, stopping and re-starting the SMTP service =
did not help. I even stopped and restarted the information store. =
Eventually I ended up restarting the machine, so that is what I did =
today.
I do want to find out what went wrong, but my real question to the group =
is: How can I set up Exchange (or another monitor) to notify me when the =
SMTP queue has gotten above 50 queues? Or, alternately, how can Exchange =
notify me when the number of queues that is "retry"ing is above about 20 =
queues?
By the time I fixed the problem, the SMTP queues read this way: 93 =
queues retrying, 5 ready, and 3 active.
After the restart, everything was fine.
