WARNING:
These pages are totally bogus due to the passage of time and the
shifting of the continents that has occurred since they were
developed.
This page shows weekly statistics related to our mail servers at the University of Washington.
There are also daily and hourly statistics available.
The Active Users chart shows the number of entries in the
/etc/passwd file on a representive member of the indicated
cluster at 5am each day.
It's pretty apparent that the data collection for the Saul and Mead
clusters is not implemented.
The Messages Received chart shows the count of incoming email messages
for all users on the indicated cluster.
Note that a drop at the right edge of this and the following plots is
likely due to not having a full week's worth of data yet rather than
indicating a downward trend.
The Messages Sent chart shows the count of outgoing messages through
the jason servers categorized by the source client computers.
The local IMAP sessions are preauthenticated connections coming in from
the native cluster. For example when a homer user runs pine which
connects to a mailer system.
I suspect that the data gathering routine was making an assumption that
was no longer valid after the start of Spring Quarter 1999. I plan to
look into that (Fixed June 19th).
The remote IMAP sessions are ones coming in from desktop clients or
other sessions that are not preauthenticated. There can be spikes
caused by one or more users setting their clients to query for new
mail every few seconds.
The POP sessions count the total number of times that pop clients
query for new mail. If one or more users set their clients up for
frequent queries you'll see inflated counts.
