Hi guys<br />
<br />
On the weekend, our Exchange 2010 server stopped receiving emails because the C drive was below the accepted threshold. We also use Messagelabs to route any inbound emails and outbound emails. <br />
<br />
Once I resolved the issue today and got the C drive above capacity again, emails started trickling through. However, we are still getting emails coming through from Saturday evening. <br />
<br />
My question is: Is this down to the original sender and how often their email system tries to resend the original email? (i.e. beyond our countrol?)<br />
<br />
Thanks for helping<br />

Our email server had an issue Saturday and no emails were being received. After fixing, emails are still coming through from two days ago....?

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.
