NAME

sma - Sendmail Log Analyser

SYNOPSIS

sma [OPTIONS] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

The sma utility analyses sendmail log entries and produces a summary of mail activity. sma reads the input from file or from standard input and writes the report to standard output or file. sma can be configured using command line options or configuration file, or both. Command line options always override the configuration file. The available command line options are as follows: -A Downcase all addresses. This is so that foo@bar.com is equivilant to FOO@BAR.Com and Foo@Bar.com and they all get counted the same in the counts. Usually one is interested in the user, not the format of the address and since email addresses are case insensitive to MTAs, one may want to make them case insensitive in sma -a Format the report as ASCII. -b color Set the background color of the HTML report as color. -C string Set report header as string. -D date1,date2 Process log entry only if the date is between date1 and date2. The format of the date is as follows: [[[[[[cc]yy]mm]dd]HH]MM[.SS]] where yy Year in abbreviated form (for years 1969-2068). The format ccyymmddHHMM is also permitted, for non- ambiguous years. mm Numeric month, a number from 1 to 12. dd Day, a number from 1 to 31. HH Hour, a number from 0 to 23. MM Minute, a number from 0 to 59. SS Second, a number from 0 to 61 (59 plus a maximum of two leap seconds). Everything but the minute is optional. The dates must be separated using a colon, without any whitespace characters. If either of the dates is missing, current date is used. -c Print the copyright notice and exit. -d Process only the domain portion of email address. -f file Read the configuration from file instead of the default configuration file. The default configuration file is defined in conf.h. -F Do not use default configuration file even if it exists. -H name Use name as hostname. -L string Process only lines with syslog tag string -h Print help message and exit. -i Include the ASCII report as HTML comment (requires -w or -O html). -n Do not report the time distribution. -o file Print the report as file. If not given, print to stdout. -O format Format the report as format. Possible values for format are ascii, html and clog. -p Print current configuration to stdout. -s Sort by transfers. Default is by number of messages. -t value Adjust the internal hash table size. Possible values for value are normal, big and huge. -q Do not print any warning messages. -l num Number of the top senders and recipients in the report. Default is 10. -r num Number of the top relay senders and recipients in the report. Default is 5. -v Print some debugging information for each parsed line. -w Format the report as HTML.

Possible values are ascii , html and clog. Command line options: -a , -w and -O HashTables string Adjust the internal hash table size. Possible values are normal , big and huge.
