Is it possible to get a CSV file of all failed messages for a certain time period in Exchange 2007? He wants it in a spread sheet so he can manage it easier.

Use the "Get-MessageTrackingLog" cmdlet with the -EventID "Failed". --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP

But the wider question is what kind of failed messages? If you send a mail to me with a bad address I'm going to accept it and just drop it. You are never going to know that your user misspelled the address. It's a failed message and you have no way of knowing.

From your perspective you waste a lot of bandwidth receiving entire messages you could just as easily refused to accept. --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP --- Rich Matheisen MCSE+I, Exchange MVP
