Subject Auditing Reporting

Auditing allows you to specify message header details such as the originator, receiver, subject line, and message identifier to be checked for matches. Message subject auditing allows you to search for text strings that are contained in message subject lines.

The Subject Auditing reports show the messages that were captured by comparing text from a defined list of text search criteria and the message subjects of all messages contained in the tracking logs for a selected server.

Setting Auditing for Subject Text in Messages

You can define the message subject auditing criteria using the Message Subject Auditing property page in the MessageStats Console.

To add subject line text to the audit list
1
Select Exchange Organizations from the navigation tree.
2
Select an Exchange organization, right-click and select Properties.
3
Select the Message Subject Auditing tab and click Add.
4
Enter the subject text and click OK.
When identifying the audit text, be specific. The less explicit you are, the greater the number of captured messages. As the number of captured messages increases, the time it takes to complete the gathering also increases.

Departmental Reporting

The Departmental Reporting reports provide a high-level overview of traffic and storage within your Exchange organization, grouped by the Department field. The Department attribute is set for mailboxes in Active Directory.

The Departmental reports provide a tool that you can use to determine how your departments use Exchange resources. Departmental reporting can be a key component in understanding overall departmental productivity and the associated costs.

When you view report data, you can see which departments generate the most email traffic or use the most storage. You can view trends to see how departmental usage changes over time.

Region Activity Reporting

Once you have enumerated your Exchange organization topology, you can group Exchange servers into more meaningful groups called regions using the Regions node in the MessageStats console. Regions allow you to sort and group MessageStats usage reports based on a logical structure that more closely matches that of your enterprise. For example, you can create regions that contain Exchange servers that are located in a specific geographical area.

The Region Activity reports provide a high-level view of the physical messages handled by the servers in your defined regions.

Graphs allow you to isolate the user traffic from system overhead. You can see the percentage of user activity compared to the percentage of system overhead traffic for the servers in the region.

You can use the Insert Field option to include information about the external and internal messages sent and received by servers in the region

Region Internal vs. External Activity

This report shows Exchange activity from a server perspective for all the servers in a user-defined region. It provides the number of mail messages created and received by each mailbox on each server in a region. Region activity is separated into internal traffic and external traffic. The report includes SMTP-submitted traffic that is identified as internal or external to an Exchange organization.

You can identify the IP Subnets and SMTP Namespaces that should be reported as internal traffic when you set the properties for an Exchange organization in the MessageStats console. For more information, see the section about Setting Properties for an Exchange Organization in the MessageStats Administrator Guide.

For more information about how to read this report, see Viewed from a Server Perspective .

You can use the Insert Field option to include information about the user and system messages sent and received by servers in the region.
