Outlook Command line Options

Outlook has a number of command line options, some documented, some not. Here is a list of all the ones I know of.
The most useful options are probably:

Outlook.exe /c "messageclass"
Outlook.exe /a "attachmentpath"
Outlook.exe /m "messagerecipient"

e.g.,

Outlook.exe /c ipm.note /a "c:\winnt\notepad.exe" /m
"rkbk@blr.place.country"

These are the ones I know:

/nopreview 'disables the preview pane
/nocustomize 'does not load VBA extensions in outlook 2000
/CleanFreeBusy Cleans and regenerates free/busy information.
/CleanReminders Cleans and regenerates reminders.
/CleanViews Restores default views.
/ResetFolders Restores missing folders for the default delivery
location.
/ResetOutlookBar Rebuilds the Outlook Bar.
/CleanSchedPlus Deletes all Schedule+ data (free/busy, permissions, and
.cal file) from the server and allows the free/busy information from the
Outlook Calendar to be used and viewed by all Schedule+ 1.0 users.
/checkclient Checks to see if outlook is the default handler
for mailto: and news: urls
/embedding starts outlook up invisble for use by VB scripting
etc.
/profiles allows you to chose which mapi profile to use
/unregserver removes outlook-specific registry entries
/regserver adds or restores outlook registry entries eg
for .msg files, VB scripting etc.
/a "path" creates an item with "path" as attachment
/c msgclass creates an item of class msgclass, eg ipm.note is
email, ipm.post is post, ipm.task is task, etc.
/m "recipientaddress" creates an item with recipient address in the To:
line. You can specify more than one by using semicolons, e.g.,
"rkbk@a.b; kk@c.d"
/folder hides outlook bar and treeview
/select "path" selects a folder in outlook. Path is of the
form "Outlook:\\Inbox" or "Outlook:\\Personal Folders\Sent Items"

These are the ones I know exist, but don't know what they do:
/cleanpst
/cleanprofile
/cleanfinders
/cleanviews
/hmenus
/recycle
/explorer
/noextensions
/nopollmail
/safe
/safe:n 'n is 1 to 4
/nowebview
/firstrun
/nospooler

Graylog - an easy solution for log management

Image
Recently, I was researching for opensource log management tools. I had only two requirements. Log Search and Log analytics. A lot of posts in the internet suggested me to use an ELK stack. But, I wanted to do something different. I found graylog as an alternative to ELK. One can setup and run it in minutes. It uses mongodb, elastic search and graylog server. Here is the login page: grylog provides different options to stream logs into graylog server. I used the simple UDP listener and forwarded logs from multiple devices into this listener. Next step is to create dashboards using the search. Here is the search page: Once search is done, you can add the widgets to a dashboard. The dashboard will help you to get the summary of your devices at one shot. It is also possible to generate alerts on different conditions. More here: https://www.graylog.org/
