Statistics Log

Create 'Statistics' comma delimited file

Use this option if you wish to maintain a comma-delimited statistics file, containing data on the number of inbound and outbound messages processed, spam statistics, antivirus statistics, and the like. This option is disabled by default.

Create 'Statistics' database file (required for reporting)

Check this box if you wish to log statistical information about MDaemon's activity to an SQLite database file. The database contains data on MDaemon's bandwidth usage, number of inbound and outbound messages, spam statistics, and the like. By default this database is stored in the "MDaemon\StatsDB" folder and 30 days worth of data are saved, but you can adjust how long to keep the data if you wish to retain more or less than the default 30 days. Data older than the designated limit will be removed during the nightly maintenance process. You can also specify how often MDaemon will compact the database to conserve space.

The Reports page, in the MDaemon Remote Administration (MDRA) web interface, uses this database to generate a variety of reports available to Global administrators. For each report, data may be generated for several predefined date ranges, or the admin may specify a custom date range. Administrators can choose from the following reports:

•Enhanced bandwidth reporting

•Inbound vs. Outbound messages

•Good messages vs. Junk messages (percentage of email that is spam or a virus)

•Rejected Inbound

•Inbound messages processed

•Top recipients by number of messages

•Top recipients by message size

•Outbound messages processed

•Top spam sources (domains)

•Top recipients of spam

•Viruses detected, by time

•Viruses detected, by name

Also in MDRA, under the Logs menu, there is a Statistics Log page for searching and sorting MDaemon's Statistics Log.

During nightly maintenance:

The options below govern which database-related tasks MDaemon will perform during the nightly maintenance operation.

Compact database every [xx] days

Use this option if you wish to periodically compact the database to conserve space. By default this option is enabled and set to compact the database every 7 days.
