Detail
Example 1. To keep a copy of outgoing messages sent to a particular domain in a specific folder on the server, create the rule as follows:-
File domain.com messages to a folder
Check messages before sending. If message sent to *domain.com* run script
the script must be set to the following
set fso = createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
if not fso is nothing then
fso.CopyFile "<file>", "c:domainbackup"
set fso = nothing
end if
Set the path as required.
Example 2. To keep a copy of messages in a pre-defined public folder on the mail server, create a Content Filtering rule as follows.
File domain.com messages to a public folder
Check messages before sending. If message sent to *domain.com* copy to ‘domain.com outgoing copies’
This will save copies of the relevant outgoing messages on the mailserver in the specified public folder. Using WebMail or an IMAP client you could view these saved message files on the mail server.
