The Email Notification Manager allows the user to see which email queues have been generated over a given time frame, how many messages were sent out, and how much time they took to send. This also allows the user to keep track of which email queues are still pending, and which had a personalized message generated instead of a standardized one. The user can see when the notification queue started and ended, and click on individual entries to see the message that was sent out to users.

To conduct a search, a user has to enter in a time range to gather statistics from. The Status allows a user to focus in on a particular set of messages waiting to be sent out.
The Email option allows the user to enter in a specific email address to find all messages sent to that user, while the Message option allows the user to find specific messages by the text contained within them.
