mailstats(8) System Manager's Manual mailstats(8) NAME mailstats - Displays statistics about mail traffic SYNOPSIS mailstats [-o] [-C cffile [-f stfile] FLAGS Do not display the name of the mailer in the output. Use cffile as the name of the sendmail "cf" file instead of /var/adm/sendmail/send- mail.cf. Use stfile as the input statistics file instead of /var/adm/sendmail/sendmail.st. DESCRIPTION The mailstats command reads the information in the /var/adm/send- mail/sendmail.st file (or in the file specified with the -f flag), for- mats it, and writes it to standard output. Note also that you can change the location of the sendmail.st file by editing its pathname in the sendmail.cf file. EXAMPLES The format of the information is shown in the following example, in which the first field (M) contains a number that indicates the position of that mailer in the sendmail.cf file, starting at 0 (zero). For ex- ample, the first mailer in the sendmail.cf file corresponds to the num- ber 0 in the mailstats display, the second mailer corresponds to the number 1, and so on.

Contains the number of messages received by the local machine from the indicated mailer. Contains the number of bytes in the messages received by the local machine from the indicated mailer. Con- tains the number of messages sent from the local machine using the in- dicated mailer. Contains the number of bytes in the messages sent from the local machine using the indicated mailer. Indicates the name of the mailer. If sendmail transmits mail directly to a file, such as the dead.letter file or an alias target, the message and byte counts are credited to the prog mailer, as defined in the sendmail.cf file. However, mail- stats will still default to var/adm/sendmail/sendmail.st.
