.SH NAME
|
||
|

.B mail_stats
|
||
|
|
\- monitor the transactions of the Archie system
|
||
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
.B mail_stats
|
||
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
\fBmail_stats\fP is a shell script which is designed to periodically be
|
||
|
|
run from the
|
||
|
|
.BI cron (8)
|
||
|
|
process. It sends mail to Archie system maintainers describing the
|
||
|
|
transactions of the system, including sites which have been sucessfully
|
||
|
|
and unsucessfully retrieved, parsed and updated.
|
||
|
|
.SH CONFIGURATION
|
||
|
|
In addition to the standard log entries the Archie system will generate
|
||
|
|
information on each transaction it performs if the system administrators
|
||
|
|
create a file called mail.results in the ~archie/etc directory. This file
|
||
|
|
must be readable and writable by the Archie user. The files mail.fail,
|
||
|
|
mail.success, mail.add, mail.delete, mail.parse, and mail.retr
|
||
|
|
will be created in the same directory.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In order for mail_stats to work correctly, the line
|
||
|
|
.IP
|
||
|
|
MAIL_PGM=/usr/ucb/mail
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
should be set to the user mail agent of choice (if the default given is
|
||
|
|
not acceptable). The mailer chosen should accept a "-s" command line
|
||
|
|
switch with a subject as the argument. Also the line
|
||
|
|
.IP
|
||
|
|
ARCHIE_USER=archuser
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
should be changed to the the name of the Archie administration user code
|
||
|
|
name if not the given default. Mail to this user should be set to be sent
|
||
|
|
to the Archie system administrator(s).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once run, mail_stats will reset all the mail data files except mail.results
|
||
|
|
which remains until the next invokation of the program.
