NAME
     sma -- Sendmail Log Analyser

SYNOPSIS
     sma [OPTIONS] [file ...]

DESCRIPTION
     The  sma  utility	analyses  sendmail log entries and produces a summary of
     mail activity.  sma reads the input from file or from  standard  input  and
     writes the report to standard output or file.

     sma  can be configured using command line options or configuration file, or
     both.  Command line options always override the configuration file.

     The available command line options are as follows:

     -A      Downcase all addresses.  This is so that foo@bar.com is  equivilant
	     to FOO@BAR.Com and Foo@Bar.com and they all get counted the same in
	     the  counts.  Usually one is interested in the user, not the format
	     of the address and since email addresses are  case  insensitive  to
	     MTAs, one may want to make them case insensitive in sma

     -a      Format the report as ASCII.

     -b color
	     Set the background color of the HTML report as color.

     -C string
	     Set report header as string.

     -D date1,date2
	     Process  log entry only if the date is between date1 and date2. The
	     format of the date  is  as  follows:  [[[[[[cc]yy]mm]dd]HH]MM[.SS]]
	     where

		   yy	   Year  in abbreviated form (for years 1969-2068).  The
			   format ccyymmddHHMM is also	permitted,  for  non-am-
			   biguous years.
		   mm	   Numeric month, a number from 1 to 12.
		   dd	   Day, a number from 1 to 31.
		   HH	   Hour, a number from 0 to 23.
		   MM	   Minute, a number from 0 to 59.
		   SS	   Second,  a  number from 0 to 61 (59 plus a maximum of
			   two leap seconds).

	     Everything but the minute is optional. The dates must be  separated
	     using  a colon, without any whitespace characters. If either of the
	     dates is missing, current date is used.

     -c      Print the copyright notice and exit.

     -d      Process only the domain portion of email address.

     -f file
	     Read the configuration from file instead of the default  configura-
	     tion file. The default configuration file is defined in conf.h.

     -F      Do not use default configuration file even if it exists.

     -H name
	     Use name as hostname.

     -L string
	     Process only lines with syslog tag string

     -h      Print help message and exit.

     -i      Include the ASCII report as HTML comment (requires -w or -O html).

     -n      Do not report the time distribution.

     -o file
	     Print the report as file. If not given, print to stdout.

     -O format

	     html and clog.

     -p      Print current configuration to stdout.

     -s      Sort by transfers. Default is by number of messages.

     -t value
	     Adjust the internal hash table size. Possible values for value  are
	     normal, big and huge.

     -q      Do not print any warning messages.

     -l num  Number  of the top senders and recipients in the report. Default is
	     10.

     -r num  Number of the top relay senders and recipients in the report.   De-
