.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
The \fBmailstats\fR utility prints out the statistics collected by the
\fBsendmail\fR(1M) program on mailer usage. These statistics are collected if
the file indicated by the \fBStatusFile\fR configuration option of
\fBsendmail\fR (defined in \fB/etc/mail/sendmail.cf\fR) exists. The default
statistics file is \fB/etc/mail/statistics\fR.
.sp
.LP
To enable \fBmailstats\fR, you must, as root, touch \fB/etc/mail/statistics\fR.
See the \fBStatusFile\fR processing option in \fBsendmail\fR(1M).
.sp
.LP
\fBmailstats\fR 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:

.LP
The display of statistics described above is followed by a separation line
containing only equal sign (\fB=\fR) characters. After the separation line, a
line preceded with a "\fBT\fR" and totaling the values for all of the mailers
is displayed. This is followed by another line preceded with a "\fBC\fR" that
lists the number of TCP connections.
.sp
.LP
To reinitialize the statistics file once a night, add an entry to root's
\fBcrontab\fR(1):
.sp
.in +2
.nf
mailstats -p > /dev/null
