602LAN SUITE’s statistics file contains information that can help you track messages, monitor employee e-mail usage, and more. The statistics file is a simple comma separated value text file that can be opened with any spreadsheet application. 602LAN SUITE automatically prunes entries in this file after it reaches the size defined in the configuration, meaning new entries automatically overwrite old entries.
