Mailbox and Log File Locations

Mailbox and Log File Locations

Question:
What is the location of the users’ mail boxes so I can back them up to a tape?

Also, where are the Internet e-mail tracking log files stored?

Answer:
The users’ mailboxes are all stored in the PRIV.EDB file?that’s your Private Information Store. The public folders are all stored in the PUB.EDB file.

As for tracing an e-mail, I assume you mean message tracking. Those logs are located in the ExchsrvrTracking.log directory and are named for the date they were created in the yyyymmdd.log format (e.g., “19991225.log” would be a log file created on Christmas Day, 1999).
