Sun Java System Instant Messaging 7.2 Administration Guide

Configuring Email Archive Settings

You can configure which administrators will receive emails containing archived instant messages. You can configure a separate list of administrators to receive polls, news, conference, alerts, or chat sessions. You can also configure Instant Messaging to use the extended RFC 822 header. Doing so allows mail clients to filter messages based on the header content.


Note –

If you run configure after modifying these parameters for the email archive, any values you input will be overwritten.


Table 18–1 describes the configuration parameters you use to define which administrators will receive email archives, as well as whether or not to use the extended RFC 822 header, and the content of that header.
