Managing Recipient Settings

Administrator Reports

When you create a schedule for Mailbox Manager, you also have the option of creating a report and sending that report to a designated administrator mailbox. The report details the times Mailbox Manager ran, the mailboxes it processed, the number of messages it moved or deleted, and the size of the messages it moved or deleted. You can choose to have a summary report sent to an administrator or a detailed report sent to an administrator.

Summary Report

A summary report is e-mailed to the designated administrator mailbox and contains basic information, including the total size of all messages moved or deleted by Mailbox Manager. A summary report looks similar to this:

The Microsoft Exchange Server Mailbox Manager has completed processing mailboxes
Started at: 11/16/00 12:55:03
Completed at: 11/16/00 12:56:08
Mailboxes processed: 200
Messages moved: 30
Size of moved messages: 32.40 KB
Deleted messages: 25
Size of deleted messages: 25.00 KB

Detailed Report

The other reporting option is to have a detailed report attached to the summary report e-mail. The detailed report includes the specific policies Mailbox Manager is running, the specific mailboxes processed, and the specific folders within each mailbox that are processed each time Mailbox Manager is run.

At the bottom of every detailed report is a summary of message number totals and message size totals, similar to the summary report example above.
