Since im now helping out with logcheck, I just wanted to say that i will help fix any major issues in this package, if needed - will monitor the bts, but it doesn't look like much is "needed" to keep this alive. Alternatively, logcheck makes light use of mime-construct and it would be easy to migrate to a different way of doing that, if needed
