Any GUI tools or easy scripts to get Qmail Statistics? 1

[bonjeanie]

Looking for an easy tool or GUI interface to use to gain statistics with Qmail.

I looked at qmailanalog but it doesn't appear to be easy to set up and use .... or maybe I am missing something.

Management wants stats on Qmail and I am looking for a simple tool to provide this to them. What would be sweet would be something that could present the statistics through a web interface.

Thanks for any suggestions or help :-D

Are you familiar with MRTG? It was originally designed for monitoring network traffic but there is a tutorial on setting it up for qmail monitoring. It will use your qmail logs and provides png images displaying several stats. Here are the links to the main site and the page detailing mrtg with qmail.

MRTG:

Qmail package:

Also heres a link to our site that graphs our qmail usage so you can see what it looks like in use.

I am very happy with it so far. Hope that helps.
