Use this screen to search the archived messages included in any archive store for which queries are enabled. SecurityGateway will search all messages according to the parameters you set for the search. You can use the For Domain: option at the top of the screen to select All domains or a specific domain, and you can use the Advanced options to narrow the search based on Subject, Message Body, Date range, attachments, size, and several other attributes.

This screen also contains tools for viewing the resulting messages, downloading them, and restoring them to the mailbox to which they belonged.

Search Tips

Both the ? and * wild cards are supported in searches.

Use * with a portion of text to find all messages containing any variation of that text. For example, searching for send* would return messages containing send, sender, sending, and so on. Searching for *example.com would return messages containing any @example.com addresses or example.com domain, such as: mail.example.com, sg.example.com, or the like.

Use quotation marks to search for exact phrases. For example, searching for "Frank Thomas" would only return messages containing the name, Frank Thomas. Without the quotes it would return any message containing the words  "Frank," "Thomas," "Frank Thomas," or "Thomas Frank."

Use the minus sign ("-") before a word to exclude messages containing that word. For example, searching for -John Smith would find all messages containing "Smith" but exclude all that also contain the word "John."

 

If for some reason you should need to rebuild the full text index, you can do so using the Maintenance option located on the Archive Store screen.
