Well this is the thing what I've been doing, but it is complex (with rotating logs, and storing log positions & seek). IMO for SNMP monitoring something more simple should be used.

What I am now thinking is using socket-communications to tell external software that increase counter. But still it is not perfect as I would like to have real counter from transport (successfull / unsuccessfull).

With integrated counter support it would be easier to monitor exim with Nagios&Cacti.
