currently the last 4 digits of the logs name are ignored (e.g.
pop3-20031030*) - but greping all logfiles is a cool idea (i really
didn't think about that yet) - it only brings along a little overhead. 

i just tried 
$ grep "2003-10-30 01:0" /var/MailRoot/logs/smtp-* | wc

this simply lasted for about 20 seconds, because i have logfiles since
2001 sitting in the directory...

So I'll give a try for logs-YYYY*

Rob, Thanks for the idea!
