I have the same issue. Spotlight on Messaging shows messages stuck on the send queue. Has anyone figured out how to view the Send Queue. In previous versions of Exchange, I used MFCMAPI to view the temptables for messages that were stuck.

I have heard that this can be from calendar meeting requests being sent to or received from external recipients, but I haven’t found anyway to verify that.

I have had the exact same situation on my Windows 2008/Exchange 2007 CCR cluster when using Spotlight on Messaging. In my experience they are erroneous and there are no hung/failed messages. I would love to see some information from MS or Quest on this.

Has this issue been resolved? We are having the same issue. We have to failover the cluster and restart our two Hub Transport servers because the email is being held up in the Transport Mailbox Delivery Queue.

I see no other symptoms, no. This happens on both mail servers which are both CCR clusters. The only reason I even found out failing the servers over cleared this up is because one post I found somewhere said they found this to be true for them and they had the same issue. There is not a redundant nic, no, just the additional nic for the heartbeat of the CCR cluster. What DNS logs do you mean and where do I find them? Do you mean the logs on the DNS servers? What am I looking for there? We have several DNS servers.

Inbound and outbound emails appear to be flowing just fine. When I look at the queue veiwer there are no building or stuck queues, I only see this when I look at performance monitor counter MSexchangeIS Mailbox – messages queued for submission.
This number is building daily although as I have already said noone is complaining about mail they have not received or was not received on the other end.
Once again, failing the ccr cluster over clears this up, but no emails show as stuck in any of the queues when I look at the queue viewer and there are no errors inthe event log.
Spotlight on Exchange and SCOM both show this number and will also break it down as to how many in each mail store, but you cannot find these emails anywhere on the exchange server unless you look at this counter in perfmon.

Have you tried sending an email to yourself to verify that they go through? Is it only from an individual user that gets stuck? Anything in the error logs that might point us some where? I had an issue a few months back where the server would stop sending and receiving every 2 days because the database was full. I would not have figured that out except for the error logs it created.

I have not contacted MS yet on this one, no. It’s not a critical thing at this point, more of an annoyance. Was hoping someone else had encountered this and knew how to fix it.

This is really a weird one, did you try and contact Microsoft for this?
