Description-en: Prometheus exporter for Postfix mail servers
Prometheus exporter which scrapes the systemd journal of Postfix MTA daemons
to expose various metrics such as SMTP connection counts, message delivery
statuses / delays etc. This exporter has a slight advantage over the mtail
log parser approach, since it also connects to the Postfix admin Unix socket
to expose metrics about messages currently in the queue.
