mailscanner-mrtg explanations

[Spicer, Kevin]

Infected mail includes all those failing MailScanners content checks.  Please note that due to the fact that MSMRTG gets its figures from the maillog and the way MailScanner logs it is likely that some mails will trigger more than one test, thus showing twice on this graph.  (Its still useful for seeing relative volumes, which are probably more important anyway).

                 Hello,
how could you explain to me the difference between  for example:
Current  Infected Mail          1491.0
and
Current  Viruses Detected       787.0
on mailscanner-mrtg graph
What is the real value of infected mails ?

Thanks a lot
