Hm, ISTR there was a report for "tyotals per month" posted to the MailWatch list a while back. Get that (you'll just have to trawl for it in the MailWatch list archive), and then this is real trivial.... set the limit of "blocked content=1", then look at the totals per month;).

Thanks Glenn.  I know they are a different color, and I know they show at the top right when looking at the current (daily) stats.  But what I"m looking for is 'in the month of December, XXXX emails were blocked due to file attachment'.   Better yet, since we service multiple domain names, add '  .....blocked due to file attachment when destined for abc123.com '

 

I assume I will have to do my own custom report for that?  Even when filtering for December; it will show emails/spam/virus per day, per month, etc..but it doesn't seem that blocked are included.  Unless I'm crazy (which very well could be :)

As replied on theother list.... Red for blocked content, pink for spam (darker for High Scoring)... You'll note the difference:-). As I said, even a severely colorblind person like me have no problem with that:-).


If you like to have reports on each type, you'll just have to select a relevant subset of limits. Again, it's pretty straightforward.

I know its a MailWatch question, but it seems as though theres a lot more MW users on this list than the actual MW list itself...so... :)




If you have MS configured to block emails based on extension (such as ...pif's for example), do those blocked emails show in the MailWatch 'spam' statistics, or do they not show at all?   Is there a way to differentiate the emails blocked due to file extension from the emails blocked due to spam?  Our management wants to know how much MailScanner is blocking due to 'itself' (ie, spam heuristics, virus scanning, etc) as opposed to stuff that we manually configure  (ie, the file extensions that we block regardless of infection or spam)




thx


Matt
