Miscellaneous scripts to gather statistics from postfix logs. The necessary
MySQL/Maria DDL is provided in the schema- files. You'll need to
define MAILSTATS_DBHOST, MAILSTATS_DBUSER, MAILSTATS_DBPASS, MAILSTATS_DBNAME, and MAILSTATS_RECIPIENT
somewhere, I keep them in a separate config file.
A daily cron job that parses the Postfix maillog for lines indicating DNSBL rejections, e.g.
Jan 24 17:46:08 mail postfix/smtpd[9762]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from unknown[47.90.x.xx]: 554 5.7.1 Service unavailable; Client host [47.90.x.xx] blocked using sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org; https://www.spamhaus.org/query/ip/47.90.x.xx; from=<[email protected]> to=<kaa16324@xx> proto=SMTP helo=<47.90.x.xx>
The number of rejections per DNSBL is tallied, emailed to the administrator, and recorded in a database for later review. Useful for evaluating how well various RBLs are performing in your environment, and whether or not you want to continue using them.
A daily cron job that parses the Postfix maillog for rejections due to 5.1.1 No such user (or any arbitrary message) and records them to a database. Sender,
recipient, and origin MTA are recorded to the database and an email summary is
sent. Useful for identifying persistent spammers and RFC-ignorant senders who
need to be blocked at the firewall, as 5.1.1 is a permanent failure.
A daily cron job that parses the Postfix maillog for errors related to TLS, e.g.
Apr 8 15:01:17 mail postfix/smtpd[31634]: SSL_accept error from mta2.e.mozilla.org[68.232.195.239]: -1
The number of errors per origin MTA is tallied, emailed to the administrator, and recorded in a database for later review.
