The mountpoint is where the partition is mounted. Still don't understand why mailscanner-mrtg needs it. Some kind of crossplatform-compatibility probably. Maybe that's needed on some BSD or Solaris (I doubt it's needed for Linux) ?

I still wanna take a good look at mailscanner-mrtg, because I don't trust it's graphs yet (I think it counts double: it also counts things like notices, etc. then the spamratio is also impacted, I think that's silly).

Also it doesn't pick up the Network and CPU utilization (it seems to use SNMP for that, which I don't).

cat /etc/debian_version         3.0
uname -r                        2.4.18-1-386
