About the event log

Various events occur during the operation of Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway. They reflect changes in the status of the program. To allow the program administrator to analyze errors in program settings and enable Kaspersky representatives to provide effective technical support, Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway logs information about such events in the event log.

Event log data is stored for the entire duration of Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway usage and is deleted permanently when the program is uninstalled. Event log files are automatically rotated when the files reach the file size limit.

Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway keeps the event log within the operating system log (syslog) in the Mail category. You can change the category of the event log.

Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway categorizes events in terms of the following levels:

By default, Kaspersky Secure Mail Gateway logs only events with the Info importance level in the event log (see table below). You can configure all program events to be recorded in the log.
