# Prometheus Postfix exporter This repository provides code for a simple Prometheus metrics exporter for [the Postfix mail server](http://www.postfix.org/). Right now, this exporter only provides histogram metrics for the size and age of messages stored in the mail queue. It extracts these metrics from Postfix by connecting to a UNIX socket under `/var/spool`. Please refer to this utility's `main()` function for a list of supported command line flags.
