SYNOPSIS
       mailstats [-c] [-o] [-p] [-P] [-C cffile] [-f stfile]

DESCRIPTION
       The mailstats utility displays the current mail statistics.

       First,  the  time at which statistics started being kept is displayed,
       in the format specified by ctime(3).  Then, the	statistics  for	 each
       mailer  are  displayed on a single line, each with the following white
       space separated fields:

	      M		  The mailer number.
	      msgsfr	  Number of messages from the mailer.
	      bytes_from  Kbytes from the mailer.
	      msgsto	  Number of messages to the mailer.
	      bytes_to	  Kbytes to the mailer.
	      msgsrej	  Number of messages rejected.
	      msgsdis	  Number of messages discarded.
	      msgsqur	  Number of messages quarantined.
	      Mailer	  The name of the mailer.

       After this display, a line totaling the values for all of the  mailers
       is  displayed  (preceded	 with  a  ''T''), separated from the previous
       information by a	 line  containing  only	 equals	 (''='')  characters.
       Another	line  preceded	with  a ''C'' lists the number of TCP connec-
       tions.

       The options are as follows:

       -C     Read the specified file instead of the default sendmail config-
	      uration file.

       -c     Try to use submit.cf instead of the default sendmail configura-
	      tion file.

       -f     Read the specified statistics file instead  of  the  statistics
	      file specified in the sendmail configuration file.

       -P     Output  information  in  program-readable mode without clearing
	      statistics.

       -p     Output information in program-readable mode and  clear  statis-
	      tics.

       -o     Don't display the name of the mailer in the output.

       The mailstats utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
