Hello,
There is no particular inbuilt options to monitor LIVE exim logs through WHM but you can install log view plugin and monitor your all server logs through WHM

If you have access to a root shell you can
tail -f /var/log/exim_mainlog
Depending on the volume you may or may not be able to spot anything useful! If you know what you're looking for try exigrep.
Along with many other tails and command line tools it is however great to leave running on a second monitor if you have someone non technical coming by your office...
tail -f /var/log/exim_mainlog

Code:
tail -f /var/log/exim_mainlogIF I am reading your right.. sounds like a great idea.. I have snuck around my server a few times using PUTTY... will that work...
Been awhile but I used to play with Putty a lot... at least if I blow it up all the 126 domains are mine.. so that reduces the liability when a neophyte wanders around where they should not be and screws it up... wish me luck.. LOL.
then using the command.... tail -f /var/log/exim_mainlog
Are am I lost again?
The WhM is on my VPS.. so yes I have access to all those dangerous areas.. LOL.
thanks again.

Putty should be fine, that command only follows the mail log for the server so you shoudn't be able to do any damage (at least with that!). When you're done you can simply control+c to close tail and then logout.
