When was a DL last used? |
|
|
I am trying to script or develop some sort of way to see which DLs are not
being used. I know promodag has something to this effect but I am at a new
job that apparently does not have message tracking turned on. Can this be
done by date or other means?

You would have to use the tracking logs. AD doesn't keep track of when someone
uses a DL to send something.

Heck at that point just write a sink that filters all mail coming through the
system and looks at the recipients. Why involve a PF at all?

I just think it's usefull, of course one might develop his own application.

Sorry not aimed at you. I am wondering about the developer if he took the time
to go that far...

Well, you can drop him a comment on his blog. I don't know the guy, but I'm
sure he would appreciate it.

Forgot to mention this is 5.5. I had Promodag (great stuff) at my last gig
but they don't even have message tracking turned on here (and any kind of
change here takes an act of Congress apparently). I'll follow up on the
suggestions though.
BTW joeware rules! Makes me want to learn C++! Do you have a low-$$ approach
to recommend (at least to begin with)? |

Thanks glad you like it, I have fun writing it.
The simplest solution will be around message tracking or linking every DL to a
public folder and watch for the messages. Sinks can be involved and are for E2K
and better.
