EML File Parameters

These parameters are for importing internet e‑mails from EML files. Event Import recognizes any internet e‑mail file as an EML file if it conforms to RFC2822. Note that EML files, as recognized by Event Import, may have different file formats. EML import operations can also use Email general parameters and File handling parameters.

Note: RFC2822 is commonly used to mean ‘Internet Message Format’, based on the name of the RFC document describing it.

EML.RemoteDataLocationType

When importing EML files, the Internet email may be archived in a remote location. This parameter specifies the type of archive where the remote data is located. This information is used by the Remote Data Manager (RDM) to retrieve data stored remotely during an event search. The parameter syntax is:

EML.RemoteDataLocationType=<archive type>

When specifying this parameter, its value must match one of the supported archive types. For a list of supported archive vendors and associated parameter values, please contact CA Technical Support.

Note: If this parameter is set, you must also specify EML.RemoteDataLocationMimeHeaderTag.

EML.RemoteDataLocationMimeHeaderTag

Set this parameter to the name of the header tag in the EML file that identifies the location of the data file in the remote archive specified by EML.RemoteDataLocationType. The syntax is:

EML.RemoteDataLocationMimeHeaderTag=<header tag>

This header tag was set by the application that originally stored the email in the remote archive.

If this parameter specifies a header tag that is not present in the header of the EML file, the event will be imported with no remote data type or location and a warning is written to the CA DataMinder Event Import log.

Note: If this parameter is set, you must also specify EML.RemoteDataLocationType.

EML.RequiresDataLocationMimeHeaderTag

Defaults to Yes. This parameter specifies whether the specified header tag must be present in the EML files. The syntax is:

EML.RequiresDataLocationMimeHeaderTag=Yes or No

If set to:

Yes

Event Import will fail (that is, will not import) any emails that do not have the specified tag. This is also the default behavior if this parameter is not set.

No

Event Import will import any emails that do not have the specified tag, but they are saved as ‘local’ events (the corresponding blob file is saved on the CMS) , instead of being saved as ‘remote’ events with the actual message data stored in a remote archive.
