Activity
The Activity menu bar is your interface into PerfectMail's performance monitoring and
activity query & reporting tools. In this menu, you can view
- Graphs
See e-mail activity over sliding 24-hour, 7-day, 30-day and 30-week time frames. Data is
presented in various graphs (line, stacked line, percent line and pie graphs). Raw data is
included so that you can perform your own analysis.
- Drill Down
Drill down lets you review e-mail activity across your server. Drill Down starts with a
summary of e-mail activity across all configured domains. Each domain is a hyperlink. Click
the domain and you get a summary of e-mail traffic for each user in that domain. Again, user
names are hyperlinks which, if clicked, displays all peers for that user. Finally, if you
click a users' peer, you see all e-mail traffic between the protected user and their peer.
Time selectors let you set the start and end date/time to any period you like. Reports can be
e-mailed in PDF format or they can be saved onto your local workstation in PDF format.
- By Time
This query interface lets you generate e-mail activity reports by any starting and end date
and time. Reports include sender, recipient, date and time of the message, originating IP
address, e-mail score and disposition and the subject line.
This is a great tool for monitoring e-mail use across your appliance.
- Discovered Users
Want to review e-mail activity for a particular user - and you know the users' e-mail
address? Go straight to discovered users to query activity over time.
- Top Spammers
Use this graph (and associated data) to see attempted e-mail abuse (spam and/or mining
attempts) by IP addresses. Information can be viewed by full IP address or by Class-C
netblock. It is often very instructive to review data by Class-C netblock. We have seen
spamming attempts by dozens of machines on the same network!
This graph provide clear proof that PerfectMail quickly identifies high volume spam systems &
networks.
- Top Legitimate
This graph shows you who consistently sends you wanted e-mail. Data is presented in ascending
order - so that the most active systems are on the right of the graph.
Because PerfectMail keeps track of all e-mail activity, we can easily see the systems who
have established a strong repuation as a wanted peer. PerfectMail would would never reject
e-mail from these servers.
