Want to prove you're not reading your users' email?


Usage Monitor is a great tool for tracking database activity.  But this means it can also be used to prove lack of activity.  Usage Monitor uses a top down filter scheme to determine what to watch.  So the configuration shown below says to ignore anything I do to my own mail file, because I am supposed to be reading that.  It also says to ignore anything any of the admins do in the tech Support mail file, because we are also supposed to be reading that.  The last entry says for all other mail databases, track what admins do in these files.  An empty log file will show that there was no unauthorized access of your users mail files.  Note that you would need to add a specific reference for every member of the admin team to ignore activity to their own mail file.

As a side note, the order is important.  If the last entry was first, it would take precedence when you accessed your own mail file.
