Administrators should monitor journaling queues weekly to verify journaling works properly. Alerts can also be set to remind Administrators when to monitor, or alert them when an issue arises.
SMTP Queue Growth Monitor Alert (Exchange Servers only)
The SMTP Queue Growth Monitor Alert notifies the administrator by email if the message queue hits a specified limit, in addition to potential journaling issues.
Note: To create an SMTP Queue Growth Monitor Alert, or to edit the current alert configuration, refer to the Journaling Instructions for your Exchange server.
