Retain creates an auditing record of all actions, specified by the user, which are taken on a specific piece of mail. This record is stored in the Audit table within the Retain database as opposed to other logging that Retain components do to actual log files in text format. Auditing records can be removed automatically after a specified length of time. The variable is set in days.
This logging option creates very detailed logs for the options selected, and it is very important to know that if every option is turned on, the log can become extremely large. It is highly recommended that an expiration date is set for the logs, so that they are automatically removed from the system to avoid filling up your disk space. Selecting all options for logging will affect performance, so that should be kept in mind when choosing options.
All of the options are self explanatory; however, many questions arise in regards to the "Audited" option. When this is checked, every action in the "Audit" screen in the RetainServer interface is recorded.
