Hi, The thread you're mentionning is no longer relevant, however as of today it is true that statistics are not exposed to users. I don't know if we should, it requires at least a bit of thinking and of discussion which I think should target the 6.5 release. In particular, a lot of people are using the smtpctl stats command as an input to reporting utilities and maybe we should provide a better way to do that, and maybe I already have diffs heading in that direction ;) Gilles -- Gilles Chehade https://www.poolp.org @poolpOrg -- You received this mail because you are subscribed to misc@opensmtpd.org To unsubscribe, send a mail to: misc+unsubscr...@opensmtpd.org
