This ZenPack is deprecated in favor of the WMI Exchange 2003.  The authors are working together on that version.

This WMI-based ZenPacks provides a template for monitoring Microsoft's Exchange 2003.  The WMIExchange2003 template is available on the /Devices/Server/Windows device class and provides graphs for the Information Store, Email Delivery Time, Email Delivery Rate and Queue Sizes once it is bound and monitoring.

There are two informative graphs that can be interesting:  

• Users connected to mailstores, It's always nice to have a good history how many users are connected to your server.
• Messages per minute, same as above.. Nice to know how many messages you server handles over a longer period.

Then there are two graphs that shows you if your server is struggling under pressure.  

• Queue sizes, these should almost always be empty at normal use. From experience when these queues contains a lot of mails, something fishy is going on.
• Average delivery time also shows when the server is under heavy load.
