That's great.

The plugin is (or is supposed to be) POSIX shell script only.

When I interpret this correctly, runtime is around 3 minutes?

The plugin is currently able to graph:
- Overall accuracy
- Number of processed messages by classification (true positives, true
negatives, etc) both in absolute as in percent

You can choose to draw for all user, a single user, or a group of users
(such as all users within a domain), based on regular expressions on the
username.

I mainly started coding because I wanted to have a better overview of
dspam performance over time, and because I don't use the dspam webui,
which has some nice graphs of itself (so they say).

Your high runtime shows me a direct issue with the current way
dspam_stats output is retrieved: munin will timeout when dspam_stats is
ran on-demand. I'll implement a workaround for that, and send the plugin
tomorrow.
