Subject: When do "Arsystem Email Messages" get created?


Hi Everyone,

We have a test server (ARS 7.01 patch 1, Red-Hat Linux).  We
want to know when this system WOULD send out email if it were
a live system, but we don't want it to actually do it. So we
haven't installed the Email Engine because we don't want it
sending out test messages to customers.

According to the Email Engine manual, the "Notify" action of a
filter or escalation creates an "Arsystem Email Messages"
entry, which the Email Engine reads.  In our test system
filters do notifications, and the filter log shows an email
being sent, but no Arsystem Email Messages entry gets created.
 Does the creation of this entry depend on the existence of an
Email Engine, or is something else at work?

The larger question is, How can we set up a test system so
that we can monitor the sending of emails, without them
actually going to people?
