When I send a test mail, the MTA 'msgsfr' increases immediately and, a few seconds later, the MTA 'msgsto' *also* increases. Why is this?
timings, I think this is when mailstats increments 'msgsto'. So what does 'msgsto' actually mean?
Because mail which comes in usually also goes out.
timings, I think this is when mailstats increments 'msgsto'. So what does 'msgsto' actually mean?Just what it says:
msgsto Number of messages to the mailer.
$ sendmail -d8.20 -vt < ./test-sendmail.txt
I expect mailstats to show one incoming message on the MSP, and one outgoing
What I actually get is one in *and* one out on the MTA, and nothing on the MSP.
where sendmail is listening. So, basically sendmail only *sends* mails,
