This server is only processing a small amount of email comparatively,
perhaps a few thousand a day.  I haven't got around to setting up MRTG
on it.

I have however passed the URL across to another sysadmin at the company
who is running our main SA+Qmail server, which easily does 100k+ of
email a day.

Thanks again,

Darren
