It goes back to April 2006. I do have some questions about the report though, and please forgive my ignorance. I use MM but I really haven't dove into like I should have so I'm still a little shaky on how things work.
According to the report one list has 14,297 posts but according to the Post Count by Sender report 13,797 of those posts came from [EMAIL PROTECTED] So does that mean that only 500 posts were made by members or are those 13,797 more then just commands from the members? I would appreciate a better explanation on that. Also, under the Hourly Summary of Message Sent report from the smtp log. The totals are based on how many email addresses the message was sent to, correct? So if a list has 250 members it counts each message per member? I know that it bundles the message per connection so a single SMTP connect could have 100 messages in it. I just want to make sure. The problem is that my email server is being beaten in to the ground and it looks like this clients lists (they have 8 or so) are seeing a heavy increase in membership and frequency. I need to put numbers together so I can tell them they need to either get a dedicated list server or pay more (so I can upgrade!). Any help would be great. I'm just a bit ignorant on the internal workings of MM but am learning. Plus I don't know Python from a hole in the ground so I'm leery about messing with code to much. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
