I have not tried the stat feature (am running 3.1.6 and have to rtfm now),
but would it not be more useful for there to be a webmin module to read
the data instead of shuntting the data somewhere else?   I reckon from
a reliability point of view, getting it viewable in real time via webmin would
save a lot of headaches.  The last thing you want is the data to be lost or
delayed on transit because of network issues.  If webmin is suffering from
it, so be it, but atleast the data is still be captured and stored.

I am suggesting webmin only because I have been trying to work with
awstat module in webmin to read the sendmail logs and make sense
of the milter-greylist activity.  Not much has happened - just in the
exploratory phase.

BTW, Emmanuel, thanks for the great tool!  It has saved so much time
for my users (about 4000+) who have been suffering in silence for too
long.
