System Tray Utility/METray (Professional and Enterprise Editions only)

The MailEnable System Tray (METray.exe) utility provides monitoring, reporting and automatic updates for MailEnable.

Double clicking the METray icon will bring up the System Overview Screen as shown.

Right clicking the icon shows a menu with options as detailed below.

System summary

System reporting and monitoring can be enabled and disabled from within the System Summary. Tick the box to enable the feature or untick the box to disable the feature and click ‘Apply’. All MailEnable Services will need to be restarted or a reboot is required for these changes to take effect.

The System Summary provides details on the connectors (Post office, List and SMTP) showing polling intervals and queue lengths. These details are also viewable in the System Overview diagram.

System overview

The system overview screen provides a diagrammatic representation of the MailEnable system. The operational status of each of the services (POP, IMAP, web mail, HTTPMail) can be seen in the diagram. The polling intervals and length of the inbound and outbound queues of each of the connectors can also be seen in the diagram. Clicking on the inbound and outbound queues in the diagram will produce a window with a list of the current connections, including the client IP address, remote domain, sender etc. POP and IMAP connections can be viewed by clicking on each of these services in the diagram. These connections can also be viewed under 'Connections' in the METray menu.

The number of lookups and detections for antivirus scanning, Bayesian filtering, DNS blacklisting and content blacklisting are listed at the top of the System Overview window.

Ticking the box in the bottom right hand corner of the application window shows statistics since the services were restarted.

Diagnostic report

Provides a shortcut to generate a diagnostic report for MailEnable (this Diagnostic Report can also be accessed via the Administration Program or MailEnable Program Group).

Updates

Provides an automatically updated list of any major/minor updates or hotfixes that have been released for MailEnable. These updates can be selectively downloaded from the list.

Connections

Monitors incoming and outgoing connections for SMTP and shows a list of the current connections including the client IP address, remote domain, sender etc. A similar list of connection details for POP and IMAP services can be viewed also. Connections can also be viewed by clicking on the queues or services in the System Overview diagram.
