All that really does is set IGNORE_LOCALHOST. I can set that to "true" or "false". I installed version 1.14. Ubuntu comes with version 1.12. It's still not working. What I find a little strange is that my graphs don't look anything like the ones on the mailgraph website. Another thing I'm noticing is that sent mail is counted even if I don't sent anything. I believe it's counting incoming mail as sent mail. At this point the only thing I can say for sure is that the numbers are off. I guess it helps to see a graph in case something goes wrong. However, it isn't an accurate representation of incoming and outgoing mail. The only good thing so far is that I can see viruses and spam. -- Unsubscribe mailto:mailgraph-request@...?subject=unsubscribe Help mailto:mailgraph-request@...?subject=help Archive http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/mailgraph WebAdmin http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/lsg2.cgi

I changed IGNORE_LOCALHOST=true to IGNORE_LOCALHOST=false. I then deleted all the graph info in /var/lib/mailgraph. When I restarted mailgraph I got a big surprise. My sent mail went from 14 to 211. It looks like something is working when I set INGORE_LOCALHOST=true.

Is something wrong with the way mailgraph reads the log file? Why does it work when I erase everything and restart mailgraph? -- Unsubscribe mailto:mailgraph-request@...?subject=unsubscribe Help mailto:mailgraph-request@...?subject=help Archive http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/mailgraph WebAdmin http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/lsg2.cgi
