Send Queue Backing Up In Individual Mailstore

[shoemakerna]

I recently installed "Spotlight on Exchange 2000/2003" from Quest Software, to monitor my Exchange server and how it was performing. The software is reporting that the send queue for one of mail stores is severely backing up.

Why is this? Where are the mail store queue's? Is there anything I can do fix this?

define "severely". Maybe the threshold is too low.

It is showing 540 messages in the send queue, and has been that way and slowly climbing for the last few hours. Would changing the threshold correct this? If so, how do I change that?
