Calvin,
We have the same setup here...all mail going to a "Backup Admin" account in
Exchange and then rules migrating the data to folders with the clients
and/or group names. This works great. Then I give permission to each admin
to have view access to the folders.
Another thing that our Exchange Admin did was set a 90 retention on all the
emails in each folder. That way the folders don't have to be manually
maintained and any email over 90 days is automatically discarded. Works
Great!
Scott

Why get so fancy? You do have multiple clients setup for each backup right?
IE 1 for weekly, and one for monthly for each server? If you do, just
e-mail the completion records of each client to a different mailbox and then
peruse the mail box. That is what I used to
do.....
I have now gone to the following instead(requires no scripting at all, and
works great).
I send all notifications to an exchange server mailbox called alert.
I use microsoft outlook (can't use outlook express) to setup the inbox Rules
Wizard. This seperates all e-mail notifications to seperate folders, useing
"server side rules" (you may have to play with the rules to ensure you
don't setup any client side rules. Then you have to have outlook open and
running on your client 24/7) Once it is setup, anyone can attach to the
mailbox and look in any folder they care about to see the machine they want
to see. Works perfectly, with no scripting.
