DOCUMENT:Q155592 03-APR-1999 [exchange] TITLE :XFOR: MSMI Message Tracking Does Not Log Message Size PRODUCT :Microsoft Exchange PROD/VER:winnt:4.0,5.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbusage ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Exchange Server, versions 4.0, 5.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== The Microsoft Exchange Server Microsoft Mail Connector interchange (MSMI) does not log message sizes in the message tracking log files. STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Exchange Server versions 4.0 and 5.0. This problem was corrected in the latest Microsoft Exchange Server 4.0 and 5.0 U.S. Service Packs. For information on obtaining the service pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces): S E R V P A C K MORE INFORMATION ================ When message tracking is enabled, tracking log files are written to an Exchsrvr\.log file. The tracking logs are tab delimited text files that are best displayed in Microsoft Excel. The file name of each tracking log corresponds to the date of messages tracked for that particular log file. For example, if a message was sent through the MSMI on March 24, 1997, and message tracking was enabled, a tracking log file would have been created with the following file name: 19970324.log The component that logs a particular entry in the message tracking log is located in the fourth column (column D in Microsoft Excel). For the MSMI, the component name looks similar to the following: /o=MSFT/ou=Guitars/cn=configuration/cn=connections /cn=MS Mail Connector (Strat) The message size should be logged in the ninth column (column I in Microsoft Excel). The message size logged for any message going through the MSMI will be 0 bytes.
