When administrators create a mailbox search, ScanMail creates an Exchange search task to perform the backend search. This
Exchange search task name implements the following format:
[task_name][server_name][time_stamp]
For example, for the mailbox search “task1” performed on “serverA” at 4:30 am on September
12,
2012, the Exchange search task name is:
task1serverA20120912043000
Administrators can use the following shell commands to perform actions on the backend
