Hi All,

Pflogsumm version 1.2.2alpha02 has been released.

This is an Alpha release that may eventually become Beta 1.2.2 once
it's been wrung-out for a few days on the servers I admin—provided I
get no bug reports or enhancement requests.

From the ChangeLog:

rel-1.2.2alpha02        20260815

    Added --suppress <report(s)> option, allowing one to suppress
    selected report sections. Current report section options are:

        host/domain   - suppress all host/domain summaries
        per-hour      - suppress all per-hour/-day statistics
        rdns-warnings - suppress all "does not resolve to address"
                        rDNS warnings
        size-detail   - suppress per-user message size detail

        "--suppress help" lists the available report suppression
        options

An explanation for the impetus behind the new --suppress option may
be in order.

For years I've been reading my own pflogsumm reports and found:

    • I *never* paid attention to the per-hour/-day statistics or
      per-user message size information.

    • More than once I've missed truly interesting warnings amidst
      reams of "does not resolve to address" warnings about which I
      utterly did not care. (I 4xx clients with failed rDNS.)

I thought about what other report sections in which one might
reasonably be disinterested and added the host/domain summary
sections to that list. (I scan them. Others may not care.)

If anybody has any comments or suggestions on this new option, the
choices I made, or additional choices I could add, I'd be happy to
see them.
