I was told when I purchased APM that you could monitor synthetic email transactions. So far, I haven't been able to find any template for this or any way to configure it. Has anyone else done this?
You can do that with scripts in 2.0, but it's built in to APM 2.5 as first-class monitors. Maybe you should sign up for the Beta and take a look.
Thanks...unfortunately, I don't have a test environment or the time to test the beta.
Ok. The Beta typically evolves into a Release Candidate, which can be put into production. We will support Beta participants on the RC in their production enviornments.
RC is what we expect to be the final release, but we reserve the option to fix bugs in the RC.
I just updated to APM 2.5 and I see that there is a template for POP3 UE, but not for Microsoft Exchange. Can this be configured a different way?
The template for it is named "MAPI Round Trip Email". As with the other Round Trip email templates, you will have to configure its component monitor with the correct details about your mail server environment.
Thanks guys! I've started configuring it and it looks good so far.
