Archiving Incoming and Outgoing Emails Directly

Scalix offers an easy way to deliver copies of all emails going through the Scalix server into another archive mailbox. With MailStore you are able to archive that mailbox by using an "IMAP Multidrop" profile.

Important notice: Since Scalix 11.1 the Scalix Archiver feature is only available to Business and Enterprise license users of Scalix.

Step 1: Modifying Scalix configuration

To enable the described function in Scalix, you need to open the file general.cfg of you Scalix installation. The default path of the file is /var/opt/<nodename>/sys.

Now set the variable ARCHIVE to the email address of the mailbox you want to use for archiving with MailStore Server. Prepend bcc: to the email address as required by Scalix. Example:

 ARCHIVE=bcc:[email protected]

Step 2: Restarting Scalix Archiver service

To active the configuration changes, the Scalix Archiver service has to be restarted.

 omoff -d0 archiver sr
 omon archiver sr
