Everything you need to generate these numbers (and many more) is in your
sendmail log. I run a script that greps and tallies anything I can think
of.
For example, here's a snippet of code from my script. This code shows the
viruses stopped by MIMEDefang and my antivirus package (I use Vexira)...
VIRUS_NAMES=`grep MDLOG ${LOG} \
| grep "[_,]virus," \
| awk '{ print $6 }' \
| cut -f4 -d"," \
| cut -f1 -d"@" \
| sort -u`
if [ "${VIRUS_NAMES}" != "" ]
then
print "\nMIMEDEFANG STOPPED THE FOLLOWING VIRUSES"
for V_NAME in ${VIRUS_NAMES}
do
V_COUNT=`grep MDLOG ${LOG} \
| grep ${V_NAME} \
| wc -l`
print "${V_COUNT}Hits: ${V_NAME}"
done
fi
The output of that piece of script looks like this:
MIMEDEFANG STOPPED THE FOLLOWING VIRUSES
15 Hits: Heuristic/PwdRAR
3 Hits: W32/Bagle.P.1
48 Hits: W32/Bagle.j
2 Hits: W32/Bugbear.b

1 Hits: W32/Mydoom
37 Hits: W32/Netsky

2 Hits: Worm/Mydoom.F
2 Hits: Worm/NetSky.B.1
27 Hits: Worm/NetSky.P
3 Hits: Worm/Netsky.K
The code may not be optimal, but it works just fine.

How do you collect all those statistics? I'm fairly new to this and I'd
love to show reports like this to managgement. It's the sort of stuff
they drool over! Oh, and it would help me manage the system. <g>
