I have to agree. At least until you get warmed up to the OS you should keep an eye on what's going on. Unless someone comes forward with a really neato tool then setting up filters will take an understanding of what's included in each report and what is okay to ignore, etc. What I like to do is let them archive on each system in a monthly rotated mail file, so the history stays with the system. I read copies that are forwarded to my admin mailbox with the system name in the header. They're lightning quick reads, unless something is going on, and that's what you _want_ to know about. Once things are calmed down I'm sure you can procmail match between new reports and one of your typical "nothing going on" template versions.
