MailDetective for Windows 10 - Full description

MailDetective is an email traffic reporting tool for organizations that use Microsoft Exchange Server or MDaemon. It analyzes mail server log files and turns them into reports that help administrators and managers review how email is used across a corporate network. The reports can show company-wide activity or focus on individual employees, email addresses, and selected time periods, making the program useful for reviewing traffic patterns rather than reading message contents.

Reports break down incoming and outgoing email activity and show traffic distribution by user and address. A mail-by-recipients report can include sender addresses, local and external traffic totals, and the ratio between those types of traffic. These details help identify accounts generating unusually high volumes of email or distinguish internal correspondence from traffic sent beyond the organization. MailDetective also reports on email subjects, with substring search for finding messages whose subjects contain a particular term.

One installation can work with multiple mail servers, allowing administrators to collect and review data from more than one server through a shared reporting workflow. Support for Microsoft SQL Server provides an additional option for handling report data. Results can be saved as HTML or Excel files, which makes them easier to share, archive, or examine with other tools. Reports can be generated for a specific employee or address, the whole organization, or a chosen interval, depending on the question being investigated.

Typical uses include reviewing business email activity, examining traffic distribution, and investigating possible non-work-related use of company email resources. Network and IT staff can use the summaries to spot changes in volume and identify accounts that may warrant closer review. The information is based on server logs, so the usefulness of each report depends on the logs available to the installation; MailDetective is a monitoring and reporting utility, not an email client.

MailDetective is shareware and is intended for environments running Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 or later; MDaemon is also listed as a supported mail server. The stated minimum hardware requirements are a Pentium III 800 MHz processor and 256 MB of RAM. The interface is available in English, German, and Russian. Compatibility with current Windows releases is not established by these system requirements, so organizations should verify that the software can run in their specific environment before deployment.
