Thanks Steve!

The command works perfect!

Error?
My test server doesn¹t have a lot of emails passing MailScanner and
therefore not that much to store in the database and then for MailWatch to
work with. When I tried to create graphs though ³Top Senders by Volume² or
³Top Recipients by Quantity² after just a few emails I got an error. Unable
to create graphs. No data available. But there is! This happened until the
size of the emails for an email address passed 1Mb. I get the feeling that
none of the email addresses under 1Mb counts. Could that be the case?

Request.
I¹d like to be able to have a list of email addresses not to show in the
graphs. Example. I have one admin account on the top 10 list. I think that
this email shouldn¹t be there.

Thanks,
Daniel
