Make sure that you are set up to receive gateway accounting files.
For example, if you want to set up a gateway accounting report for activity to and from the
Internet through the Internet Agent, you would add yourself as an Accountant on the Gateway
Administrators page of the Internet Agent object, as described in
Section 47.3, “Tracking
Internet Traffic with Accounting Data,” on page 780
. The Exchange Gateway and the Notes
Gateway have comparable property pages.

In the GroupWise client, create a rule to forward all gateway accounting messages (that is,
those messages with an attached acct file) to the Monitor user in the external gateway
accounting post office.

In order to establish the link, restart the Monitor Agent and the MTA selected in
Section 65.5.2,
“Selecting an MTA to Communicate with the Monitor Agent,” on page 1056

Monitor Agent Web console
