How can I determine the amount of caught/received emails with JunkMail? It would take me an eternity to go through each log file.

My first question would be "Is there a ton of spam being caught?" If you're blocking 1,000 spams to your personal account a day and 50 spams get through, that's not too bad. If you're only blocking 100 spams and 50 get through, that's a problem. If it's the later -- where a large percentage of spam is getting through -- there is probably a problem with some of the tests. Does the log file report a lot of warnings or errors? Does the first DNS server listed in the IMail SMTP settings work properly? Do you have a gateway or backup mailservers that run in front of the IMail server? -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
