MRTG stats on Spamassassin Scores?

Jim Herrick — Fri, 25 Jun 2004 10:42:00 -0000

Take for instance - this maillog entry:

Jun 25 12:11:42 host MailScanner[2631]: Message
i5PABOf0005031 from 2.9.7.1 (soqrdt@xxx) to x.com is
spam, SORBS-DUL, SBL+XBL, NJABL-comb, CBL,
BLITZEDALL, DSBL, SpamAssassin (score=41.318,
required 6, autolearn=spam, ...

A group of my friends use my machine and will
collectively set the various thresholds for dealing with
spam. Being able to graph the Spamassassin scores
(actual and required) for each message (and the
averages) would be great!

Is this even possible?

Create SNMP port for external mrtg

Anonymous — Wed, 04 Feb 2004 20:29:45 -0000

It would be a very nice feature to create a custom MIB
and a SNMP daemon for mailscanner that could be
queried from an external source. For example, I
currently have 8 different firewalls scattered about the
country and use a linux machine to query them and build
the MRTG graphs for their stats. I would like to take
the same linux box (which is not my mailserver
incidentally) and add some more graphs for my
MailScanner. Unless I am missing something, the
current mailscanner-mrtg requires that I install it on the
same server as the MailScanner is running on.
I would picture a nice mrtg config file that would allow
you to change the ip address of the MailScanner host.
The maillog parser would be installed on the MailScanner
host and would provide MIB database to the SNMP
daemon with all of the stats.
I would be willing to help with the design of this program
if you would like.

Multiple domain support

Anonymous — Thu, 04 Sep 2003 15:46:53 -0000

Would it be possible to provide multiple domain support
in the form of either, additional graphs or additional
items on the graph? Graphs that could use a mutli-
domain view: mail, spam, virus

From looking at the program, adding additional graphs
would likely require a greater cpu effort than adding
multiple domains to a single chart, but MRTG may not be
able to handle this for more than 4 domains. Ive been
looking through the MRTG docs and am having a hard
time grasping it, maybe you could provide more insight.

More numerical stats, postfix/exim/sendmail support

Anonymous — Tue, 27 May 2003 14:32:27 -0000

1) More numbers to show Management that the spam
control is working. (Or how much mail they WOULD be
getting if it wasn't!)

2) Instead of only sendmail support have alternate
configurations for postfix or exim.

More numerical stats in the likes of Mailstats

i.e.

Total messages handled 1,740
Messages handled successfully 1,734
Average messages per day 192
Messages in last 10 mins 572
Messages rejected 6
Rejection rate 0.34%
Viruses detected 2
Infection rate 0.12%
Total data handled 10.28M bytes
Average message size 6.07K bytes
Rejected in last 10 mins 3
Spam received 0
Blocked domains 0
Spam rate 0.00%

and then:

Virus Count (Last 10 mins)
Eicar-Test-Signature 2 (0)

and

Domain Count Spam Score
