Description
The Mailbox Transport service runs on all Mailbox servers and is responsible for delivering messages to and accepting messages from local mailbox databases using a remote procedure call (RPC). The Mailbox Transport service also uses SMTP to send messages to and from the Transport service that runs on all Mailbox servers for routing messages to their ultimate destinations.
You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although this article lists all parameters for the cmdlet, you might not have access to some parameters if they aren't included in the permissions assigned to you. To find the permissions required to run any cmdlet or parameter in your organization, see Find the permissions required to run any Exchange cmdlet.
Examples
Example 1
Set-MailboxTransportService Mailbox01 -ReceiveProtocolLogPath "C:\SMTP Protocol Logs\Receive.log"
This example sets the ReceiveProtocolLogPath parameter to C:\SMTP Protocol Logs\Receive.log for the Mailbox Transport service on server Mailbox01.
Parameters
-Confirm
Applicable: Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019, Exchange Server SE
The Confirm switch specifies whether to show or hide the confirmation prompt. How this switch affects the cmdlet depends on if the cmdlet requires confirmation before proceeding.
- Destructive cmdlets (for example, Remove-* cmdlets) have a built-in pause that forces you to acknowledge the command before proceeding. For these cmdlets, you can skip the confirmation prompt by using this exact syntax:
-Confirm:$false. - Most other cmdlets (for example, New-* and Set-* cmdlets) don't have a built-in pause. For these cmdlets, specifying the Confirm switch without a value introduces a pause that forces you acknowledge the command before proceeding.

-ConnectivityLogMaxAge
Applicable: Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019, Exchange Server SE
The ConnectivityLogMaxAge parameter specifies the maximum age for the connectivity log file. Log files older than the specified value are deleted. The default value is 30 days.
To specify a value, enter it as a time span: dd.hh:mm:ss where dd = days, hh = hours, mm = minutes, and ss = seconds.
For example, to specify 25 days for this parameter, use 25.00:00:00. The valid input range for this parameter is from 00:00:00 through 24855.03:14:07. Setting the value of the ConnectivityLogMaxAge parameter to 00:00:00 prevents the automatic removal of connectivity log files because of their age.

-PipelineTracingEnabled
Applicable: Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019, Exchange Server SE
The PipelineTracingEnabled parameter specifies whether to enable pipeline tracing. Pipeline tracing captures message snapshot files that record the changes made to the message by each transport agent configured in the transport service on the server. Pipeline tracing creates verbose log files that accumulate quickly. Pipeline tracing should only be enabled for a short time to provide in-depth diagnostic information that enables you to troubleshoot problems. In addition to troubleshooting, you can use pipeline tracing to validate changes that you make to the configuration of the transport service where you enable pipeline tracing. The default value is $false.

-PipelineTracingPath
Applicable: Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019, Exchange Server SE
The PipelineTracingPath parameter specifies the location of the pipeline tracing logs. The default location is %ExchangeInstallPath%TransportRoles\Logs\Mailbox\PipelineTracing. The path must be local to the Exchange server.
Setting this parameter to the value $null disables pipeline tracing. However, setting this parameter to $null when the value of the PipelineTracingEnabled attribute is $true generates event log errors. The preferred method to disable pipeline tracing is to use the PipelineTracingEnabled parameter.
Pipeline tracing captures the complete contents of email messages to the path specified by the PipelineTracingPath parameter. Make sure that you restrict access to this directory. The permissions required on the directory specified by the PipelineTracingPath parameter are as follows:
- Administrators: Full Control
- Network Service: Full Control
- System: Full Control

-PipelineTracingSenderAddress
Applicable: Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019, Exchange Server SE
The PipelineTracingSenderAddress parameter specifies the sender email address that invokes pipeline tracing. Only messages from this address generate pipeline tracing output. The address can be either inside or outside the Exchange organization. Depending on your requirements, you might have to set this parameter to different sender addresses and send new messages to start the transport agents or routes that you want to test. The default value of this parameter is $null.

-ReceiveProtocolLogMaxAge
Applicable: Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019, Exchange Server SE

To specify a value, enter it as a time span: dd.hh:mm:ss where dd = days, hh = hours, mm = minutes, and ss = seconds.
Valid values are 00:00:00 to 24855.03:14:07. The default value is 30.00:00:00 (30 days).
The value00:00:00 prevents the automatic removal of Receive connector protocol log files because of their age.
This parameter is only meaningful when the MailboxDeliveryConnectorProtocolLoggingLevel parameter is set to the value Verbose.

The ReceiveProtocolLogMaxDirectorySize parameter specifies the maximum size of the protocol log directory for the implicit and invisible mailbox delivery Receive connector in the Mailbox Transport Delivery service. When the maximum directory size is reached, the server deletes the oldest log files first.
A valid value is a number up to 909.5 terabytes (999999999999999 bytes) or the value unlimited. The default value is 250 megabytes (262144000 bytes).
When you enter a value, qualify the value with one of the following units:
- B (bytes)

-SendProtocolLogPath
Applicable: Exchange Server 2013, Exchange Server 2016, Exchange Server 2019, Exchange Server SE
The SendProtocolLogPath parameter specifies the location of the protocol log directory for the implicit and invisible intra-organization Send connector in the Mailbox Transport Submission service. The default location is %ExchangeInstallPath%TransportRoles\Logs\Mailbox\ProtocolLog\SmtpSend. Log files are automatically stored in the following subdirectories:
- Submission: Protocol log files for the intra-organization Send connector in the Mailbox Transport Submission service.
- Delivery: Protocol log files for side effect messages that are submitted after messages are delivered to mailboxes. For example, a message delivered to a mailbox triggers an Inbox rule that redirects the message to another recipient.
Don't use the value $null for this parameter, because event log errors are generated if protocol logging is enabled for the intra-organization Send connector in the Mailbox Transport Submission service. To disable protocol logging for this connector, use the value None for the IntraOrgConnectorProtocolLoggingLevel parameter on the Set-TransportService cmdlet.
