is it possible to log all emails sent through the server? i want to save and
log the actual .eml file not just the regular w3c logging properties. i was
asked to log emails sent through a web app and i dont want to recreate the
wheel if it is already built in, or maybe some third party software to do
the job

You are saying you want to keep a copy of every email that passes

Humm, I'd make 100% sure your company's legal department approves of
this. In some cases it might be a violation of either law or
established company/employee policy. IMHO, it is risky without a lot
of value. But, it is your (company) decision.

I think this can be done with an event sink. Sadly I've never tried it
so I can't give you the code... <g> However, I suspect a web search

In most mail server programs you have the option to copy all incoming
and outgoing mail to an account. In Exchange, it's referred to as
Journalling. The SMTP/POP server in 203 doesn't have this feature,
you'd need to program an event sink yourself for this. Or look into
third party programs if you need the functionality.
