By looking at the comments in the config file it looks like the maillog is<br>
being scanned for e-mails from that day. Would it be possible to add an<br>
hourly stat, a bit traffic like from which you can see how much mail gets<br>
delivered at which time (a graph that doesn't display a sum of all e-mails<br>
only the actual number of mails processed per time frame).<br>
<br>
Would also make it easier to spot any peak hours and see whether the<br>
server is up to it's task :)<br>
