Mailbox count

ESET Mail Security detects the number of mailboxes and displays the count based on detection:

Domain - count of all mailboxes in a specific domain to which the Exchange Server belongs. This count also applies to a DAG environment and its total number of mailboxes.

Local - reflects the number of mailboxes in the Exchange Server with ESET Mail Security installed. If the server belongs to a DAG, this number is the number of mailboxes stored on the local Exchange Server out of the total Domain count.
