I just finished reimplementing the postfix2dlf convertor.  (Excuse me
for my grave miscalculation wrt the time this would take...)

Your ohno.mrbill.net postfix log file gave me:

 Reporting on period:
 2002-03-03 00:06:48 CET - 2002-03-03 06:27:28 CET

                              Email Report
                              ------------

  Volume Delivered By 1d Period

   2002-03-03 ............................................ 83.0M


The new postfix2dlf is in our CVS now, I've build a snapshot
http://logreport.org/pub/cvs-snapshots/lire-20020328-unstable.tar.gz .
A gpg signature is uploaded to.  You might like to try that one to
process your logs.  Please let us know if you encounter any
difficulties.

Thanks again for your bugreport!

Bye,

Joost
