[IMail Forum] copy all

[Scott Huber]

I have been asked by executives to copy all email that goes in and out of our Imail 8.03 server which is also running Declude Virus and Junkmail.  I have the Copy All Mail option enabled in the SMTP Security tab and entered a local email address.  Every 6 to 8 weeks, I’ve been renaming the main.mbx file and moving it to the NAS and using Mail Navigator to sort and filter the emails as needed.  However, over the past month, the main.mbx file exceeded 1gb, no doubt due to spam and virus messages that entered my server – thanks to Novarg and MyDoom.  I tried to open the main.mbx with Mail Navigator, but it choked on my pc, so I tried it on a dual 2.66ghz Xeon with 2gb RAM; it loaded about 75% of the mbx before it choked.   I have two questions… 1) Is there a better way to copy all users’ email that enters and leaves the server, including NOT copying spam and virus messages? 2) What other apps are good for retrieving “archived” email in this scenario?   Thanks!
