NAME

       anteater — a log analyser for MTA logfiles

SYNOPSIS

       anteater  [--domain=yourdomain.xxx  --aliases-file=/home/myself/aliases
       --analyse-all --limit=NN  --filter-file=/home/myself/maillog  --report-
       html --report-html-file=anteater_report.html]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page documents briefly the anteater commands.

       This  manual  page  was written for the Debian distribution because the
       original program does not have a manual page.

       anteater is a log analyser for MTA logfiles (for example sendmail). The
       tool  is written in 100% C++ and very easy to customize. Input, output,
       and the analysis are modular class  objects  with  a  clear  interface.
       Currently  there  are modules for reading the syslog format of sendmail
       that do up to seven useful analyses and write the result in plain ASCII
       or HTML, to stdout or to files.
