I do not have the breakdowns by server.  I have a NetScreen 5
firewall in front of the servers that collect traffic data by
protocol, HTTP, MAIL (POP, IMAP and SMTP), FTP, DNS and OTHER.

The HTTP traffic info I get is all the traffic for WEO, MEO, admin
pages for the lists, etc all combined.  Same with the mail traffic,
etc.

The info for each server would come from the server log files.  Dean
or someone with access and log analysis expertise would have to
extract the info from the log files.
