newsyslog is a great thing, but..
Nevertheless, is there a way to join rotating and reporting?

First we rotate some log (on size or time),
then make report based on just saved old log;
it would be nice feature.

May be this possibility already is in -current branch?

And one more thing: how about reporting FTP login failures (in ftpdlog)?

TIA
