05-Nov-2013

The usual actions on the first of the month
revealed nothing special. Mail stats are not a real surprise:
PMAS statistics for October
Total messages    :   1934 = 100.0 o/o
DNS Blacklisted   :    738 =  38.1 o/o (Files: 19)
Relay attempts    :     44 =   2.2 o/o (Files: 26)
Accepted by PMAS  :   1152 =  59.5 o/o (Files: 31)
  Handled by explicit rule
         Rejected :    373 =  32.3 o/o (processed),  19.2 o/o (all)
         Accepted :    342 =  29.6 o/o (processed),  17.6 o/o (all)
  Handled by content
        Discarded :    152 =  13.1 o/o (processed),   7.8 o/o (all)
     Quarantained :    236 =  20.4 o/o (processed),  12.2 o/o (all)
        Delivered :     49 =   4.2 o/o (processed),   2.5 o/o (all)

The absolute number is pretty low – compared to what it used to be – but that is part of last month’s problems.
The only day with a somewhat higher amount of relay attempts has been 1-Oct-2013, the file is 6 blocks in size so the number is sure not dramatic: just 25 lines, same source, same destination, once an hour; a day earlier, the same addresses, once every 30 minutes of so.
