Yup, been there, seen that.. too frequently, sadly.

I've not taken it as far as pulling out all the domains, but I have a
few scripts that I use on a regular basis as follows. These are not
models of efficiency, but they do the job:
qusers:
#!/bin/sh
# show number of messages queued up per address
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-qread | grep remote | grep -v done | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
qyahoo:
#!/bin/sh
# summarise number of messages queued for a domain
qusers | awk '$3 ~ /@yahoo\./ { sum=sum+$1 } END { print sum }'
Just for you, here's a freshly written script that counts things by
domain part. It doesn't attempt to establish what mail server they're
queued for (qmail doesn't store that information handily, one would
have to go through the log files and try and deduce it from the
information):
qdomains:
#!/bin/sh
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-qread | nawk '$1 ~ /remote/ { sub(/^.*@/,"",$2);
domains[$2]=domains[$2]+1 } END { for ( domain in domains ) { print domains[domain],
domain; } }' | sort -n
hope that helps,
James.
