New report on traffic distribution by correspondent

The creation of a new report similar to Global Traffic Comparison by Correspondent, but at the mailbox level, was a long-standing development request. So we've just added a report called Mailbox Traffic Comparison by Correspondent to the Mailbox traffic category. It graphically displays the distribution of messages sent or received by type of correspondent (internal/external), by SMTP domain or even by individual correspondent.

Distribution by type

The default level of detail covers all selected Exchange recipients (1) and their correspondents' address type (2).

This gives you an overview of all mailbox traffic distributed between internal and external correspondents.

Distribution by domain

To go one level lower and obtain distribution by external SMTP domains, simply check the Correspondents domain (domain.com) radio button. Select the type of Internet correspondents in the Correspondents tab, and the sort order and values to be displayed in the Options tab.

Distribution by correspondent

Finally, we'll use the correspondent level of detail to analyze the traffic of a small selection of mailboxes and show who their first correspondents are.

Conclusion

This new report complements the General Mailbox Traffic and Mailbox by Traffic Level reports, from which it draws some of its information, but with the addition of a pie chart or histogram. In this way, you can supplement your usual array of reports to create clear, synthetic presentations of your weekly or monthly traffic.
