I'm going to grab and install the free "standard" version tonight and see how well that will work out. I'm contracting for a small company ang getting them to spend money is worse than pulling teeth with a hammer.
I'm buying DLAnalyzer for myself because the license allows me to use it on any logs I copy to my own machine. The company doesn't get a copy and when I no longer work for them they'll wonder where those nice spam reports went. Running Declude JM Standard rather than pro so I'm stuck with no filter capabilities too. Kiwi isn't something I'd use if I bought it and I'd have to colo a personal machine at the office if I wanted to -- no thanks <grin>. If Kiwi works out I'll tell them it's a requirement to consolodate the logs for the pretty reports they like.
