Top 50 sending hosts by message count

[chmod]

In WHM "View Mail Statistics"

under Exim statistics there is a list called

"Top 50 sending hosts by message count"

and

"Top 50 sending hosts by volume"

I have searched and searched but found no explanation as to what these two stats columns are showing. I found lots of posts asking this question but all had no replies.

I figured it must be hosts that are sending mail to my server, is that right?

Thanks for any help.

Cheers

er

OK I like to answer my own posts, it seems that the entries in this list correspond with the header info of emails sent to domains on my server, so thats ok.

If anyone reads this and knows differently please post it up.

Cheers

Good Question Thx For the Answer

Thanks for answering your own question. I too was wondering if I the server was being used as a relay...

Looks like the wording needs to be updated on these logs...

Thanks again for posting what you found out.
