Hi David,

That'll be pretty cool.  I've got a variety of statistics gathered
(mostly stats from procmail logs, i.e. number of messages put in
various folders, e.g. spam, relson, ...).  I also have a record of
corrections (FP, FN, etc) fed to bogofilter.

A while back I did a quick/dirty plot of the procmail spam counts.
It's rude and crude and needs cleaning.  For those who're interested,
it's at http://www.osagesoftware.com/bogofilter/counts.png

Regards,

David
