ARBITRON(8)
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.

       month, and 4-digit year.	 If the end date is not specified, then the
