Monitoring Kerio Connect

In Kerio Connect, you can:

Monitoring incoming and outgoing messages

All messages sent or received through Kerio Connect are stored in Kerio Connect installation directory in folder store/queue.

Kerio Connect stores the messages as the following files:

Viewing the messages in queue

Go to Status > Message Queue > Messages in Queue tab to view messages in queue.

In this section you can:

  • Verify whether messages are sent/received properly.
  • Remove messages from the message queue.
  • Immediately send messages waiting in the queue.

NOTE

The Queue ID displayed in Status > Message Queue > Messages in Queue refers to the filename in store/queue.

Processing message queue

When processing the message queue, Kerio Connect creates a new process for each message. This process reports all actions (such as delivery to a local mailbox or a remote SMTP server and antivirus control) and then terminates.

Multiple processes can run simultaneously.

Go to Status > Message Queue > Messages Processing to view the status of messages that are currently being processed.

Configuring message queue parameters

In the administration interface, go to Configuration > SMTP Server > Queue Options tab.

Here you can specify:

  • The maximum number of messages being delivered at a time.
  • The interval in which Kerio Connect retries to deliver messages.
  • The interval in which Kerio Connect sends the undelivered messages to senders.
  • The interval in which senders are notified that their messages have not been delivered.

NOTE

These settings do not apply if you use a relay SMTP server.
