Message Report

MESSAGE REPORT

The Message Report includes information on the total number and size of all messages for all allowed messages going through RiskFilter. This includes inbound, outbound and messages that are sent both ways. The Message Report also automatically lists the top 10 users based on the number and size of allowed messages for inbound and outbound. There are two ways in which you can query this statistical information:

•Query the statistical information on allowed messages for the current date, or alternatively, a certain period of time for the selected year, month and date for a particular domain.

•Browse and query the RiskFilter message log for messages and the corresponding delivery information.
