    I can't seem to log smtp messages that are relayed from a remote server.  I have enabled protocol logging on the receive connector.    I am testing this by telneting into exchange 2010 from the remote server and sending a test message.  The message arrives okay but I can't seem to find record of it in any of the logs.  Where might I find it in the logs?

    Are you sure that the logging is set on the correct connector that the application is using?

    Yes, please make sure you have enabled logging on the right receive connector.

    After confirm enable logging on the right receive connector, resend email to have a try.

    Thanks,

    Try restarting the Exchange Transport Service.

    Not a silly question.  I am a newbie.

    In EMC under connector properties set Protocol Logging level to Verbose.  Enabled for all connectors including Send Connector also.  Viewing log under .\TransportRoles\Logs\ProtocolLog\smtpReceive & smtpSend

    I'm looking for any sign of the message in the logs.  The message is received by the recipient but I find NO sign of it in any of the logs.  Same result if the message is sent from within the application.  When messages are relayed shouldn't I see them in the logs?
