NAME

       mailstats - print statistics collected by sendmail

SYNOPSIS

       mailstats [-o] [-c ] [-C configfile] [-f statisticsfile] [-p] [-P]

DESCRIPTION

       The  mailstats  utility	prints out the statistics collected by the sendmail(1M) program on mailer usage. These statistics are collected if
       the file indicated by the StatusFile configuration option of sendmail (defined in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf)  exists.  The  default	statistics
       file is /etc/mail/statistics.

       To enable mailstats, you must, as root, touch /etc/mail/statistics. See the StatusFile processing option in sendmail(1M).

       mailstats  first  prints  the  time  that  the statistics file was created and the last time it was modified. Then, the statistics for each
       mailer are displayed on a single line, each with the following whitespace-separated fields:

       M	       The mailer number.

       msgsfr	       Number of messages from the mailer.

       bytes_from      Kbytes from the mailer.

       msgsto	       Number of messages to the mailer.

       bytes_to        Kbytes to the mailer.

       msgsrej	       Number of messages rejected by the mailer.

       msgsdis	       Number of messages discarded by the mailer.

       msgsqur	       Number of messages quarantined by the mailer.

       Mailer	       The name of the mailer.

       The display of statistics described above is followed by a separation line containing only equal sign (=) characters. After the	separation
       line,  a  line  preceded  with a "T" and totaling the values for all of the mailers is displayed. This is followed by another line preceded
       with a "C" that lists the number of TCP connections.

       To reinitialize the statistics file once a night, add an entry to root's crontab(1):

       mailstats -p > /dev/null

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -c		       Try to use submit.cf instead of the default sendmail configuration file.

       -C configfile	       Specify a sendmail configuration file.

       -f statisticsfile       Specify a sendmail statistics file.

       -o		       Do not display the name of the mailer in the output.

       -p		       Output information in program-readable mode and clear statistics.

       -P		       Output information in program-readable mode without clearing statistics.

USAGE

       See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of mailstats when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2**31 bytes).

FILES

       /dev/null		       Zero-lined file

       /etc/mail/statistics	       Default sendmail statistics file

       /etc/mail/sendmail.cf	       Default sendmail configuration file

NAME

       mailstats - display mail statistics

SYNOPSIS

       mailstats [-c] [-o] [-p] [-P] [-C cffile] [-f stfile]

DESCRIPTION

       The mailstats utility displays the current mail statistics.

       First,  the  time  at which statistics started being kept is displayed, in the format specified by ctime(3).  Then, the statistics for each
       mailer are displayed on a single line, each with the following white space separated fields:

	      M 	  The mailer number.
	      msgsfr	  Number of messages from the mailer.
	      bytes_from  Kbytes from the mailer.
	      msgsto	  Number of messages to the mailer.
	      bytes_to	  Kbytes to the mailer.
	      msgsrej	  Number of messages rejected.
	      msgsdis	  Number of messages discarded.
	      msgsqur	  Number of messages quarantined.
	      Mailer	  The name of the mailer.

       After this display, a line totaling the values for all of the mailers is displayed (preceded with a ``T''),  separated  from  the  previous
       information by a line containing only equals (``='') characters.  Another line preceded with a ``C'' lists the number of TCP connections.

       The options are as follows:

       -C     Read the specified file instead of the default sendmail configuration file.

       -c     Try to use submit.cf instead of the default sendmail configuration file.

       -f     Read the specified statistics file instead of the statistics file specified in the sendmail configuration file.

       -P     Output information in program-readable mode without clearing statistics.

       -p     Output information in program-readable mode and clear statistics.

       -o     Don't display the name of the mailer in the output.

       The mailstats utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

FILES

       /etc/mail/sendmail.cf	The default sendmail configuration file.
       /etc/mail/statistics	The default sendmail statistics file.
