We do this using a PHP script (amavis-stats) by a guy called Mark Lawrence. I've hacked it somewhat to do the same with spamassassin logs as it does with virus logs, so we get a whole pile of rrd files. I then have some (dummy) .cfg files that allow the routers2 frontend to read these generated .rrd files and produce graphs - in addition to the more complex summary graphs produced by the amavis-stats programs. So, I get a stacked 3-value graph showing passed, virus and spam messages/min, with a further breakdown over our 4 mail hosts. I'm not completely sure I'd advise doing it this way since the script is a bit ugly (I suspect our version is a bit old - 2003 - and I've hacked it without knowing PHP, but it works) however you'd probably be better off writing something in perl to send the logs (via syslogd?) to your mrtg server, then parse them and push the data into your rrd files which are then displayed by your favourite frontend via a dummy .cfg file.
