If you haven't missed it Clutter is a new feature in Exchange Online that is trying to help deal with the deluge of email that most people receive each day using machine learning. Clutter has been live for a little while now and processing away in the background (if you have enabled it) so I decided to put together a script that will report on what Clutter has been up to using EWS. So the following script produces a report that is emailed to the owner of the Mailbox the script is run against. The report itself looks likes the following (I've been trying out some new HTML code that's optimized for mobile devices)
So the script first enumerates all the Items in the clutter folder and then does some aggregation to work out how many messages in the clutter folder where received in the last 7 days, pervious week and month. It also calculates the total number of attachments ,senders and senders that are in the GAL. To work out if a Sender is in the Global Address List the script does a resolve on each of the senders. The result or each resolution is cached so the same sender address is only checked once.
I've put a download of the script here the code itself looks like
