Daily/weekly/monthly output aggregation

[Lapinski, Michael (Research)]

This isnt ideal nor fool proof.

The way I deal with it is by the size of the message, 
day in day out the messages are usually +- a few bytes
different in size when things go normal. Maybe write 
something that flags messages smaller or larger then 
the daily average of the runs...

We plan to replace the mailed output by centrally collecting the results and
defining some sort of "needs action" output.

But, well, we're not yet there. We need a solution, as well.
