Can you increase mail log retention on XG?

Question

Hello, we've been using the XG as our web and email filtering for the past 6 months or so. It seems that the mail logs really don't go back very far (approximately 40 days) and the log viewer only goes back about 1 day. Does anyone know if there is a way to increase the log retention times? TIA

Hello Adam, 
 By default the retention time is by default 3 months and can be extended to a year. Make sure your other retention is adjusted so the disk space does not get filled up. If you are considering to install Iview in your network you can use external storage unit.
