ANNOUNCE: mailstats.pl V0.17

[David While]

If you run it manually then you need to type ./mailstats.pl or use the full
path name. The config.pl file should be in the same directory as the
mailstats.pl file.

Hi David,

I just downloaded ver .18. When trying to run it, I get this error:
Can't locate /config.pl in @INC (@INC contains:
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-
thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thre
ad-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl
/usr/lib/perl5/
vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0
/usr/
lib/perl5/vendor_perl .) at mailstats.pl line 44.

Where exactly should config.pl go? Right now, I've got it in the same
folder
as mailstats.pl

Jody

For those people who use my script to analyse the mail log file you will
find a new version which has the following additions:

It can now report which spam traps have been triggered eg the RBLs so you
get a report showing spamassassin, osirusoft.com etc and how many spam each
of them has detected.

I have also separated the configuration values into a separate file so that
future upgrades of the software are easier to install - you shouldn't have
to change your configuration file.

I have also changed the code which scans the log file to make it
substantially quicker.

The report also includes the current number of mail messages in the mail
queue.

You can view the output at http://www.boys-brigade.org.uk/mrtg/

You can download as usual from
