Gathering Public Folder Content and Attachments

To configure content and attachments gatherings for public folders, determine the public folders you want to include and define the criteria for the content and attachment information that you want to gather and store.

Prerequisites

You cannot run a Public Folder Content and Attachments gathering unless you have run a Default gathering task and an Exchange Public Folder gathering task.

The Exchange Public Folder Content and Attachments task does not support Exchange 2013 and later.

For Exchange 2010, the task credentials must have full access to the logon mailbox specified for the gathering server. You can use the mailbox that is associated with the task credentials. The account must also have membership in the Exchange Public Folder Administrators.

Best Practices

It is recommended that you select 10 public folders or less. If you select more than 10 public folders, performance can be seriously affected and the MessageStats database can grow substantially. If you want to select more than 10 public folders, it is recommended that you create multiple gatherings with batches of 5-10 public folders.

Collects all content, except body text.

To include body text in the gathering, select the Only content that satisfies the following filters option and enter the text that you want to include.

Only content that satisfies the following filters

For details, see Applying Content Filters .

No content

If you select the No Content box on the Content Filters page but select some attachments on the Attachment Filters page, MessageStats stores some content information.

Since attachments are attached to items in a public folder, MessageStats must store content information for any item that contains one or more attachments that meet your collection criteria. The content information ensures that attachments can be traced back to their originating items and they can be found using Microsoft tools outside of MessageStats.

Selecting Public Folder Items

On the Public Folders Items page, select the Exchange 2010 public folders from which you want to collect content and attachment data. You can select individual public folders from within a public folder database, or you can select the Public Folder box to collect information from all the public folders in the public folder database.

 

Applying Content Filters

Use this page to define the public folder content that you want to gather. During the gathering, MessageStats processes and stores the content that matches the criteria that you identify.

Content and Attachments gatherings are extremely resource intensive. Carefully consider the content criteria that you are configuring. Only collect the information that is required and review your Content Filter page often to ensure that the information meets your needs.
