Subject: [Exim] Where did all the mail come from and go?
I'm going over this eximstats report and I'm a bit puzzled.
I'm trying to understand where the gig of mail (when I usually only see 3 to
400MB) came from and went to.
I see a source for 100MB, but nothing that adds up to a 1G+ (I mean, I do
see local, but that doesn't help me).

As you guessed, I want to find out what's happening and teach the culprits
about other fine protocols like ftp and http :-)

I have full logging turned on, as in:
2001-01-24 06:45:44 14LRBA-0005gB-00 <= mahakala@??? H=(localhost.localdomain) [216.248.176.2] P=esmtp S=1719 id=BLEFIFGKNFKNNGIKEIOICEDMCBAA.mahakala@??? T="subject snipped" from <mahakala@???> for jrabin@???
2001-01-24 06:45:44 14LRBA-0005gB-00 => jrabin <jrabin@???> D=localuser T=local_delivery
2001-01-24 06:45:44 14LRBA-0005gB-00 Completed

I'm guessing I need to hack eximstats in some way, but I'm not too sure to
understand what it's missing yet.

Thanks,
Marc
