1. Click Start > All Programs > Microsoft Exchange Server 2013 > Exchange Toolbox.
   
   
2. In the Mail flow tools section, double-click Queue Viewer.
   
   
3. In Queue Viewer, click View > Options to configure the following settings in the Queue Viewer Options dialog box:
   
   
   1. In the Refresh interval (seconds) field, enter the frequency at which Queue Viewer should update the display.
      
      

      Note:
      The default auto-refresh interval is 30 seconds and can't be set for a shorter time. If you disable auto-refresh functionality by clearing the Auto-refresh screen check box on the Queue Viewer Options page, you must manually update the results that are displayed in Queue Viewer by clicking Refresh.

   2. In the Number of items to display on each page field, enter the maximum number of items to display in Queue Viewer. This number must be from 1 through 10,000. If you have more items than the limit, you will see the items in groups of the maximum number of items. For example, the following figure shows a queue with 14 messages with Queue Viewer configured to display 10 items on each page. The number of objects on the page is displayed on the upper right. At the bottom of the page, you can see the total number of items in the queue. You can use the navigation controls to see the additional items in the queue.
      
      
4. When you are finished, click OK.
   
   
   
   

You'll know this procedure worked if Queue Viewer uses the refresh interval and number of items per page settings.
