[news.sysadmin] uustat -m

dan@hrc.UUCP (Dan Troxel) (03/18/89)

I haven't found any indepth info on what each field means in "uustat -m".
Would you please explain what the 2nd and 3rd fields mean.
I am running on a Convergent S/640, CTIX 5.2.2

		This is the number of days your site has been trying to get
		through to this site.

Finally the last field is the current STATUS, hopefully the text should
be self-explanatory.

Thanks to all on responding to my 'uustat -m' question. I tried to reply
to all that sent mail, but it got out of hand.

Actually this is the age of the oldest file, and does not have any
relation to calling attempts.  For instance, if you have Never in the
time field, your system will not make any attempts to call the site
for delivery, but the files will still age.  You can artificially age
them as well (via touch) to generate bounces - this is useful when
some unkind person mails 3 copies of the same 60k message through your
long distance connection.
