Monitoring Mail and Web Server

[SimonZarate]

Hi:

I want to monitor my Mail Server and Web Server in a terminal window. I will like to view:

1. Connection stablished
2. Sending/Receiving Progress (with mail address)
3. Errors while Sending/Receiving

There is any way to do this? Do you recommend another solution to do this?

I am considering mailgraph, but I am using Xmail and mailgraph is design to work with Postfix, so I don't know if mailgraph will work with Xmail. Is possible to use mailgraph with Xmail?

Thanks for your help,

Do you mean monitoring as in 'see whats going on now' or monitoring as in 'tell me when something breaks'? If you just want to see what is going on, then you can probably tail /var/log/message or /var/log/mail.* to see whats going on.
