What is happening is funny. I stop Qmail, and the at the same time
when IPTRAF reports huge amount of SMTP packets incoming, in
the iplogger logs I have no SMTP attempts at all. When I start
Qmail, in the logger and qmail logs, I have some SMTP data
coming (like two-three messages every 10 minutes... it was 6 in
the morning when I tried it), and IPTRAF still reports 1 MB of data
per minute coming to port 25.
And not only IPTRAF is reporting that, but my provider also, and I
pay for every GB of traffic. Now it seems that I will go bankrupt
really soon :-(
