Humm.. definitely it's a hack, but hay it works. Slow because every line
of the log must be examined and there could be many thousands. Why would
anybody care if it's slow?
It's only unreliable in the context of different log formats, so modify
it to your requirements. ;-)

Attached is a little perl script which parses /var/log/maillog and lists

With the caveat that on most Linux systems, the logs roll at 0400 Sunday

have to go through maillog, maillog.1, maillog.2 and so on to get info
on users who logon inrequently.

Your maillog contains the info you require.
As root on a linux install try:
# cat /var/log/maillog | grep login
Which should give you a list of all login details up to the last date
stamp on maillog (or whatever your log file is named).
Your syslog is your friend.
