Hi all
Hope you can point me in some good direction or just curious have you experience such scenario. At work, almost at least every day, I would need to restart Exchange Information System Store services. Why because the hard disk space will go from 2 GB to 744 MB left. When this happen, no one in the company can receive email, send email, or check into email server for any services. In the beginning I thought, there were spam emails that cause the information store services or the SMTP to a hault. Sometime, in the mailroot/vsi/badmail/ folder there would lots of bad mail like at least 45MB of it. Also at time, there will be so many log files in one those storage group folders like around 10GB of it. So Darian, if you can help me a bit or gave me some hint, i would appreciate your help.

Love always,

run a full exchange backup and your huge log files will be lots smaller (ntbackup will do fine)
