Active email storage (logs/reports)

Active email storage enables on-demand retrieval of your email content through the Infobip web interface. Email messages remain available for retrieval for the duration of the defined retention period, which is 3 months by default and configurable up to 3 years.

Active email storage is intended for short-term, operational scenarios where frequent or immediate access to email content is required, including:

• Customer support: Retrieve email content to resolve customer inquiries, verify communications, or investigate disputes.
• Operational troubleshooting: Access email messages to investigate delivery issues, verify content, or diagnose technical problems.
• Internal reviews: Retrieve email files for quality assurance, compliance audits, or content verification.
• Real-time monitoring: Access recent email communications to monitor service quality and track customer interactions.
