Where are archived emails stored?

Archived emails are exported to an XML file with the following naming convention: Archive_DBName_YYYYMMDD_X.xml (eg. Archive_Jim_Test_20190823_1.xml)

 

The folder in which archive files are written, along with how often email is archived for is configured via Jim2 eBusiness Server (Jes).

 

To set this up, on the server:

Run the Jim2 Configuration Manager. Locate this via the start menu in Windows under the Happen folder.

Highlight the Jes instance to configure.
