Anti-Spam statistics September
Derived immediately from the logfiles (counting the records) dating back to 06-Sep-2007:
PMAS.LOG (both blocked and filtered): 631
PTSMTP_ANTIRELAY.LOG: 25
PTSMTP_DNSBL.LOG: 1381
In short this means that roughly 60% of all received messages are blocked because they are blacklisted because of the domain of the sender, or , for 2% of that, are attempts to abuse the server for releay (which is not allowed)
Looking at data from the moment I could use statistics, up to now (01-Oct-2007 21:00 local time):
Scanned: 352
Delivered: 164
Filtered: 188
For September only (above figures minus what’s handled today):
Scanned (-26): 326
Delivered (-16): 148
Filtered: (-10): 178
That is: about 55% is junk. Suppose its about avarage (though time is too short to really tell, but just assume it is), that means that of the 631 messages that were processed, 347were junk.
So the final figures are:
Accepted: 284
Not accepted : 347 (filtered) + 25 (relay) + 1381 (blocked by RBL) = 1780 messages
A total of 2064 SMPT accesses, of which 86% is junk
Not bad for a very lightly configured package!
Memory
Before last reboot (due to system update) I disabled a few things. This seems to keep page- and swapfile usage low: where before about 75% to 80% was saifd ” in use”, it’s nor less than 40%. It doesn’t nake a lot of sense because the applicatiosn I removed were said to be low-impact. Well, they MIGHT be on bigger systems….
Running this PHP session added a bit, but not much.
Netbeans – distributed, that is
On the Dutch OpenVMS Technical Update days (started today) I talked to Meg Watson of HP, who knows everthing about Distributed Netbeans, it should work on a system like Diana. Worth a try 🙂 once more, who knows!
Of course, there is the celebration of the 30th aniversary of VMS
