You can use the System Management Interface to generate predefined Messaging reports. These reports are useful for monitoring users, system usage, planning capacity, and tracking system security.
The storage server collects information about system settings and properties. The storage server also collects information that depicts how the system is used, including data about features, users, communities, data port loads, and remote messaging traffic. The Messaging system displays this information in real-time dynamic report pages and in the Messaging traffic reports.
Messaging provides the following reports:
Reports (Storage): Provides a summary of Users (Local), Information Mailboxes, Remote Users, Uninitialized Users, Login Failures, and Locked Out Users.
System Evaluation Report (Storage): Provides a summary of various Messaging settings and properties. This report also shows information about dormant mailboxes. A dormant mailbox is a mailbox that has not been accessed in 30 days or a new mailbox that has not received any messages in 30 days.
Internet Messaging Traffic (Storage): Provides a summary of the port usage on the Messaging system in daily or hourly periods. This report helps to determine if the Messaging system is performing at peak efficiency by providing the actual usage information. This report also provides information about outcalling ports, user traffic, and feature traffic that helps to evaluate system efficiency.
TCP/IP Snapshot: Provides the total traffic for all machines with the specified connection type. It also displays the total number of updates.
Messaging Measurements: Shows daily measurements of traffic by community, feature, load, network load, and user.
When the Messaging system exhausts all attempts to deliver a voice mail to a user mailbox, the system sends a Non-delivery Report (NDR) or Delivery Status Notification (DSN) to the user. If the voice mail is addressed to a System Distribution List (SDL), NDRs are also sent to the postmaster mailbox. The system does not present NDRs to Exchange users.
