SESC creates EWS push subscriptions which provide for notification from Exchange when users put email into the spam submission folder. SESC caches this information in a configuration file. This article contains steps to dump the SESC subscription cache to an XML file.
1. Download subscriptionbin.exe to the SESC server.
2. Open a command prompt.
3. Run the tool like this:
subscriptionbin.exe -c <sescinstalldir>\bin\configuration\subscription.bin <outputfilename>
The following is an example where the subscription information is written to c:\temp\subscription.xml:
subscriptionbin.exe -c "c:\program files\symantec\SESC\1.0\bin\configuration\subscription.bin" c:\temp\subscription.xml
NOTE: Double quotes must be used when there is a space in the path.
The following is an example of data that shows up in the XML output:
