System and method for analyzing and filtering journaled electronic mail

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium configured to store instructions that when executed cause a processor to perform:

• determining select electronic mail messages of a plurality of electronic mail messages that match a filter criteria;
• storing the select electronic mail messages in one or more of a plurality of electronic mail server mailboxes;
• loading a default job file via the electronic mail analyzer application;
• executing a loaded job as a batch operation on the plurality of electronic mail server mailboxes each comprising a plurality of the stored electronic mail messages wherein the loaded job comprises at least one rule to apply to the plurality of electronic mail messages;
• examining job settings of the loaded job to determine whether the job settings are valid;
• when the loaded job settings are valid, applying a corresponding predefined action to each select electronic mail message of the plurality of electronic mail messages that matches the filter criteria comprising a type of filter and a numerical string value of electronic mail message selection criteria used to identify each select electronic mail message, the predefined action being identified by the default job and the at least one rule;
• copying or moving each select electronic mail message that matches the filter criteria;
• generating a report as a result of the loaded job being executed on the plurality of electronic mail messages;
• and
• storing the report.
