Exchange 2010 Inbound and Outbound traffic logging

Is there a simple way of creating a log of email messages received and sent by our Exchange 2010 server (single server in AD) which will include Data and Time, Recipient, Sender and Subject?

Yes,

You can use PTL or Log Parser to do this

This will then integrate with Message tracking Logs on the Exchange server

Thanks, the Tracking Log Explorer seems to provide just what I want

Do you know how long its history will span?

Does the Tracking Log have any purge settings?
It depends on how long you have it set for. I think by default it is 14 days.

What is the cmdlet for showing the current setting of MessageTrackingLogMaxAge?
You have most of the command already.
Instead of set-transportserver, change it to get-transportserver.
Then add | select identity, MessageTrackingLogMaxAge
