Introducing the Mail Contacts Reports

The Mail Contacts reports provide data on the top mail contacts, and the users who use mail contacts most often in your organization.

Mail contacts are organization-level objects in the Microsoft Exchange server directory that represent users of foreign mail servers. A foreign email address is associated with every mail contact, and mail sent to a mail contact is redirected to a gateway capable of delivering mail to the foreign mail system.

In Exchange, a user who is not hosted by Exchange can be added to Active Directory as a mail contact, a Windows user, or a user whose Windows account is disabled. In any case, the user is mail-enabled, but not mailbox-enabled, because the mailbox is hosted on another messaging system.

Although mail contacts are internal to your Exchange environment, they point to external SMTP addresses. As such, mail contacts are marked as external on the Mailbox Activity, Top Internet Users reports, and Internet Domain Audits reports.

Prerequisites

The Mail Contacts gathering task and the Mail-Enabled Objects gathering task must run successfully to provide content for these reports. These gatherings are included in the Default Gathering task.

Inserting Additional Information into Reports

You can right-click on a heading and use the Insert Field option to add additional information to the reports.You can insert custom attributes (Extension Attributes 01-15) or attributes such as Department, Telephone Number, and Postal Address to the reports.

About the Presence Icons

For the reports that show the top users of mail contacts, you can view the presence status icons for the users if you have Outlook and Office Communicator installed and running on the computer on which you view the reports.

If you right-click a status icon, you can communicate with the mailbox owner. For more information about presence information in reports, see Viewing Presence Information .

Introducing Distribution Group Reports

MessageStats provides valuable information about the distribution groups in your organization, including usage, access, and traffic. A distribution group is a group of email users represented by one name that you can use to send email to entire groups of email accounts.

Prerequisites

The Distribution Group gathering task, Mail-Enabled Objects gathering task, and the Exchange Tracking Log gathering task must run successfully to provide content for these reports. These gatherings are included in the Default gathering task.

By default, the gathering task stores and reports on Distribution Group membership information. You can determine whether you want to gather membership information using the Distribution Group Membership option on the Organization Properties dialog box. For more information, see the chapter titled “Setting Exchange Organization Properties” in the MessageStats Administrator Guide.

Inserting Additional Information into Reports

You can right-click on a heading and use the Insert Field option to add additional information to the reports. You can insert custom attributes (Extension Attributes 01-15) or attributes such as Description or Notes to the reports.

About the Presence Icons

For the reports that show the top users of distribution groups, you can see presence status icons for each user if you have Outlook and Office Communicator installed and running on the computer from which you view the reports.

If you right-click a status icon, you can communicate with the mailbox owner. For more information about presence information in reports, see Viewing Presence Information .
