[Aashirya]

Hi,

I am seem for a way to track, monitor and log all e-mail message both incoming and outgoing on an Exchange 2003 server. What is being asked of me is to store and path every e-mail for authorized purposes. I would like to replicate this service to one more server to keep the load off the manufacture server. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
