The first line of output shows the time the statistics file was begun. The M column shows the index into the internal array of delivery agents, and the Mailer shows the symbolic name. The lines that follow show:
msgsfr
The number of messages and the total size in kilobytes of the messages received for each delivery agent.
msgsto
The number of messages and the total size in kilobytes of the messages sent for each delivery agent.
msgsrej
The number of message rejects by each mailer.
msgsdis

The bottom line shows the totals.
