Bytes of Mail Transferred

This graph is useful for determining the total network load due to external email. Note that this is bytes of mail on receipt by the incoming MTA process, if you are forwarding processed mail to another server the real network load will be approximately twice this (affected by mail blocked, changes to mail during processing, warnings sent out etc.) Normally this figure is as logged by your MTA, however MSMRTG can be configured to get these figures from MailScanner. Like the Messages Processed graph this should be steadily rising through the day. Because it is a constant incremental count, it will only increase or stay the same and NEVER go down. A sharp rise in traffic may be related to a denial of service attack or mass mailing. A flat-line of activity can be indicative of service problems.
