sublime has a plugin called Tail Log or yea in Notepad++ just do View > Monitoring

Too big for Notepad++, this is how I usually do it. I'll check out subline plugin, but I am on the server and don't really want sublime on the server unless I have no choice

cant just tail right on the server then?

Well, that's the plan, but Sublime is on my dev box, not prod. Trying to tail the mail delivery logs in SmarterMail to figure out why they jumped up to 1.5-2GB per day - for 30 users..

UltraEdit handles bit files really well. Haven't used it for a few years though, and it's not free.

@Michael Gillespie Not sure I follow, you said you are on the server; so why not just

tail -f smartermail.log

?

@Patrick Just tried that in Windows PowerShell, unrecognized command.

Ahhh did not catch this was on a windows machine. Using powershell try

Get-Content -Path "C:\Path-to-log-file\smartermail.log" -Wait

That did it! Thank you so much!
