Hi there, I am running the following command

Get-MessageTrackingLog -ResultSize Unlimited -Start "01/28/2023 00:00:00" -End "01/28/2023 23:59:59" -EventId "Fail"

and seeing a lot of failed inbound emails. Now some are junk, but some are important.

How can I release the important ones so they are delivered?

Thanks

JD

    Hi, if the eventID is "Fail", then the messages are unrecoverable and not delivered and they would have bounced back to the sender.

    The RecipientStatus will tell you why they failed.

    Get-MessageTrackingLog -ResultSize Unlimited -Start "01/28/2023 00:00:00" -End "01/28/2023 23:59:59" -EventId "Fail" | FL RecipientStatus
