I run logtail http://debian.stro.at/bzr-test/logtail/ on the maillog every
5 minute, and pipe it to a parser.

Great, that shows I've missed a few classifications.. Now if there only where
an explanation for what they all mean.. ?

The stats-info in database looks interesting, but I'd prefer having the stats
per host. We currently have 7 mailservers using the same policyd-database. 
4 doing mainly greylisting (MX-hosts), and 3 doing throttling (smarthosts).

IMHO, it's quite readable when using stacked area. It probably helps that
that we're not using all features on both mx and smarthosts.

The colour could probably use some tuneing to indicate better what's accepted
and what's rejected connections.
