asked on Delivering emails to a directory on a file server?
Does anyone know if there is a way to have certain system emails delivered to a particular folder on a file server rather than to a mailbox? Our network team would like to have monitoring emails from Nagios sent to a monitored folder and then have the emails deleted after a particular time via a script.
We are running Outlook 2007 on Exchange 2007 SP3. file servers are Win Server 2008.

Bahaha...Neilsr, I really wish I could give you thepoints just based on this response. I actually offered a public folder to send these alerts to. Waiting on a response but I so thank you so much for your reply.

Thank you for this information. I am trying to see if another option is available using a public folder if the issue is not wanting to receive the alerts in user inboxes. But this information is very informative. Thank you so much.
Emails delivered to a disk folder? Why? Do they not use email? Do they not have desktop clients for email?
How are the emails to be named on disk?
1.eml
2.eml
3.eml
...
3212332.eml
I would love to hear a good argument for this.
You can easily have piece of powershell/vba/c# code running that monitors a mailbox once a day and deletes items older than X hours/days/weeks.
