Where can I see an amount of users on my Chatmail relay

timursagdenov · December 13, 2025, 6:31am

I have a chatmail relay (https://deltachat.kz). I want to know how many users are registered on my chatmail relay. Following ChatGPT instructions, I tried sudo journalctl -u dovecot --no-pager -n 50, but it shows only last actions on the relay. Is there a way to know an exact amount of registered users?

https://deltachat.kz/metrics

But apparently this is going to get removed soon, and the new way is http://{{mtail_address}}:3903/metrics with mtail_address = 127.0.0.1 in chatmail.ini:

github.com/chatmail/relay

chatmaild/src/chatmaild/ini/chatmail.ini.f

          # Address on which `mtail` listens,
          # e.g. 127.0.0.1 or some private network
          # address like 192.168.10.1.
          # You can point Prometheus
          # or some other OpenMetrics-compatible
          # collector to
          # http://{{mtail_address}}:3903/metrics
          # and display collected metrics with Grafana.
          #
          # WARNING: do not expose this service
          # to the public IP address.
          #
          # `mtail is not running if the setting is not set.
          
          # mtail_address = 127.0.0.1
