Barracuda Message Archiver Features
The need for email archiving is growing as today’s organizations are more frequently asked to keep, and deliver on demand, access to the comprehensive library of all sent and received email messages.
Due to strict compliance guidelines, administrators often need features that enable quick and secure delivery of past emails and a message audit history to address legal scrutiny. From an operations perspective, email archiving provides the ability to ease the strain on physical storage by moving emails off the email server without sacrificing access to the messages.

Comprehensive Email Management
The Barracuda Message Archiver provides multiple tools, enabling archiving and historical imports, search and retrieval, message storage, and roles to provide in-depth control over individual and organization-wide email archives. Capabilities include:
- Archiving. With multiple modes of deployment, getting started with email archiving is easy. Emails intended to be archived can either be pushed to the Barracuda Message Archiver via SMTP, or the Barracuda Message Archiver can pull emails via standard email access protocols (POP3 or IMAP). The Barracuda Message Archiver can also be deployed in conjunction with the Barracuda Spam Firewall, leveraging its capabilities to journal inbound and outbound email.
- MAPI email import. Using Microsoft’s Message Application Protocol Interface (MAPI), you can import emails from other sources to consolidate the historical emails stored on a Microsoft Exchange server into one secure email archive.
- PST file import. Scattered PST files stored on users’ desktops or laptops can also be imported. In conjunction with the MAPI email import feature, this allows you to create a comprehensive archive of new and historical emails.
- SMTP relay. The Barracuda Message Archiver can work as an SMTP relay to forward emails to your designated email server. This capability allows you to capture inter-company emails for archiving if journaling is not practical.
- Indexing. Using a thorough list of all message components, emails are fully indexed by message content and attachments with the option to add tags for customized searches.
- Search and retrieval. The Archive Search tool located in the Web user interface conducts quick full-text searches based on tags or message content. Users can easily search personal email archives, view emails in the archive and forward emails to active mailboxes.
- Message storage. Built-in storage and redundancy is provided through internal or external mirroring, as well as swappable drive trays that enable added control and email management across the organization’s network. This allows you to move emails from costly, transaction-based storage required for production email servers to less expensive storage options.
- Single instance storage. With the use of single instance storage, the Barracuda Message Archiver intelligently removes duplicate emails or attachments from a message thread, ensuring only one copy is compressed before storing it in a file system to maximize storage capacity.
- Tamper resistant. End users can monitor the status of email messages sent to their archive by checking to see if it has been corrupted or deleted.
