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.
