	Go to the Mailman FAQ Wizard at 
<http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py> and search for "log 
analysis".


	There's lots of good stuff in the FAQ Wizard.  I recommend you go 
to the index of all entries at 
<http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=index> and read through 
as many as you can, and continue doing so until you've at least 
glanced at every entry in the FAQ.  Most of the information probably 
won't stick, but you should at least get a good feel for what kind of 
information is there.

	There's also lots of good stuff in the archives of the mailing 
list.  FAQ entry 1.18 should provide you enough information so that 
you can search the archives.
