Not a lot to break; here's the script in its entirety:
#!/usr/local/bin/bash
grep -c mailer=local /var/log/maillog
egrep -c 'uce@ftc|reject|njabl' /var/log/maillog
A lot of mail traffic on my box is mailing lists; perhaps thats why
the graphs look so smooth.

How do you get your mail delivery attempts to occur so linearly? :)
I think something's busted with your mrtg script...
Here's the stats for one of the smtp boxes in our cluster (83% rejection
rate...and it's +/- 1% across the other boxes in the cluster):
