--- Comment #2 from Unnilennium <[email protected]> ---
i think the purpose of the count mail in is for incoming message to the server,
and mail out is for outgoing.
both are currently the result of the analysis of qpsmtpd log.
>From what I understand :
- qpsmtpd log only account incoming messages from untrusted sources
- sqpsmtpd log connection from authenticated clients
- delivery of messages ( outgoing and internal delivery after qpsmtpd check for
the ones coming from outside and directly for local mail) will go through qmail
log
First I am not at all convinced by the way of processing this data using the
MAIL FROM and RCPT TO for these two variables, Theuse of the domain name to
determine if it is a local or external mail is biaised as : a lot of spam are
coming saying they are sent from me to me, and SME8 and SME no longer accept
client connection non authenticated, even on local network.
hence, either the purpose of mail_in and mail_out is to be redefined or the log
to search should be different.
Mail_in could be kept on qpsmtp and defined as accepted emails for delivery
from external smtp connections
Mail_out could be extracted from qmail log for remote connections
This will leave all the internal mail exchange, and exchange to a delegated
server
Should we log the total incoming qpsmtd connections?
