NAME

       arbitron - arbitron mailboxes

SYNOPSIS

       arbitron [ -C config-file ] [ -o ] [ -u ] [ -l ] [ -p months ]
                [ -d days | -D mmddyyyy[:mmddyyyy] ] mailbox...

DESCRIPTION

       Arbitron  collects  and  reports readership statistics for mailboxes on
       the server.  It also optionally prunes the mailboxes of \Seen state for
       dormant users.

       Arbitron produces one line of output per mailbox, reporting the mailbox
       name followed by a space, followed by the number of readers (and if  -u
       is  specified,  followed  by  a colon and a comma-separated list of the
       readers userids), and if -o is not specified,  another  space  and  the
       number  of subscribers (and if -u is specified, followed by a colon and
       a comma-separated list of the subscribers  userids).   IMPORTANT:  This
       format is subject to change in future versions.

       Each  "reader"  is  a  distinct  authentication  identity which has "s"
       rights to the mailbox and which has SELECTed the mailbox within  either
       the  past days days or the specified date range.  Users are not counted
       as reading their own personal mailboxes.  Personal  mailboxes  are  not
       reported  unless  there is at least one reader other than the mailboxes
       owner.

       Arbitron reads its configuration options out of the imapd.conf(5)  file
       unless specified otherwise by -C.

OPTIONS

       -C config-file
              Read configuration options from config-file.

       -o     "old way" -- do not report subscribers.

       -u     Report userids in addition to the count(s).

       -l     Enable long reporting (comma delimited table consisting of mbox,
              userid, r/s, start time, end time).

       -d days
              Count as a reader an authentication identity which has  SELECTed
              the mailbox within days days.  Default is 30.

       -D mmddyyyy[:mmddyyyy]
              Count  as a reader an authentication identity which has SELECTed
              the mailbox within the given date range.   The  start  date  and
              optional  end  date  are specified as 2-digit month of the year,
              2-digit day of the month, and 4-digit year.  If the end date  is
              not  specified,  then the current system time is used as the end
              time.
