MMS - standard events for a message - MMS 4.x
Summary:
Standard events logged indicating message path through MMS (Normal Logging level for SMTP Relay and Policy Engine)
Please note that setting the SMTP Relay logging level to trace or debug will dramatically increase the number of events logged. This will provide you with troubleshooting data, but probably nothing useful during normal operation.
Detailed Information:
Indicates that some client connected to the MMS server (client connection) and sent x number of bytes to that server. This event ID indicates MMS has received a message.
******************
3-Information - Event 104
Component Name: SMTP Relay
Event Details:
-----------------------
Received 1384 bytes from remote host.
******************
Indicates that a message just received by MMS has been received by the Policy Engine. If the policy engine is turned off, this message won't be logged. This event indicates the date, sender, recipient subject, size, and attachments of a message. If you are attempting to track a single message through MMS, you will probably start here. See also the technote entitled: "tracing messages via the event log" The MMS reporting feature uses this event primarily for many of the reports.
