Message Tracking - Message Statuses

This article lists Message Statuses and what they mean, and is intended for Administrators
It is intended to assist you when you are monitoring or investigating messages in the Mimecast Administration Console.

Message Statuses are essential for tracking emails through the Mimecast system, allowing you to verify whether messages were successfully passed to your email service (like Microsoft Office 365) and received acknowledgement of acceptance.

Message Details

You can view Message Details, by using the following steps:

  1. Log in to the Mimecast Administration Console.
  2. Navigate to Message Center | Message Tracking.
  3. Select on an item, or click on the ellipsis "..." | View Details to view Message Details.
  4. To view the Message Status for a message, click on the Transmission Data tab, and scroll down to Envelope Details | Transmission Event.

  • hi saskin _adm,
    Many thanks for your feedback.

    I've updated the article, with steps and an image, to better explain where you can see this information.
    You'll need to click on a message, and in Message Details select the Transmission Data tab, to find the value you're looking for.
    Thanks.
