Maillog View
Maillog View is a Webmin module that allows you to easily view all your /var/log/maillog.* files. It features autorefresh, message size indication, ascending/descending view order, compressed file support, and a full statistics page. Sendmail, Postfix, Exim, and Qmail (partially) are supported. Courier MTA support is experimental.

Can you please send me some your maillog
files at my email address (the one I've sent
last mail to you) in order to test slow speed
conditions?
Thanks.

Yes, Postfix server with more than a dozen users. Perhaps, in its current state, the mod would work better if the logs were rotated enough to keep them small.

Never tried Q-Mail. Anyway, I'll check the QMail Webmin
module in order to add qmail support to Maillog.

Please send me all the test code you have used,
including data files (maillog.*) in order to be able
to reproduce what are you saying, would be useful.
Read the "Bug Reporting" page on the "homepage"
(cdrecwebmin.sf.net) for further information.

The statistics page is going in the "beauty center"
for makeup ;-) Stay tuned for improvements!
Mail log viewer
The Q-mail module already has a mail-log viewer. But the Postfix module is lacking this kind of functionality. For small branch postfix servers the ability to administer through webmin is useful.
Unfortunatly at the moment this mod seems to grind the hard drive a tad when retrieving the mail-log and sometimes locks up my webmin client, adding custom commands to tail the log or to drop it into an edit box is still faster and lighter...only you don't get the stats and pretty print output.
With a little bit of further development and slightly improved presentation this could be really handy.
