Monitor Archive Activity
While you are waiting for your work request to be fulfilled, you can monitor the
flow of messages into your archive by running the Archiving by Domain or
Archiving by Account report.
The Archiving by Domain report provides a list of domains to which inbound
messages were sent, the total number of messages to each domain, and the total
size in bytes of those messages.
The Archiving by Account report provides a list of accounts to which inbound
messages were sent, the total number of messages to each account, and the total
size in bytes of those messages.
To run the archiving reports:
1. Go to
https://login.postini.com
.
2. Log in to your Message Security service, and open the Administration
Console.
3. Click the Reports tab.
4. Under Inbound > Archiving, click Domain or Account.
5. For Report Length, select the start and end dates for your report.
6. Click Run Report.
You can also run the Traffic reports to correlate the number of messages in the
archive with the number of inbound messages for a particular domain or recipient.
Follow the procedure above to run the reports. Run Inbound > Traffic > Domain or
Inbound > Traffic > Recipient.
Compare the following values to determine whether the correct number of
messages is being archived:
When you compare the values for the same domain or the same account/recipient
in each report, those values should be roughly the same. The values in the
archiving reports will be less than the corresponding values in the traffic reports if
inbound messages have been blackholed or quarantined, and hence not
archived.
