Create custom Email Scout Reports

Once a custom incoming or outgoing log search has been run, an Email Scout Report (ESR) can be set up which contains the results of the log search and can be scheduled to be sent to a specific recipient or to all mailboxes in the domain. An ESR can be set up to run straight away, at a scheduled date and time or periodically, at a scheduled date and time.

If catch-all is detected on your destination mail server, the Protection Reports will not send.
