Product Description:

ComStats lets you chart your usage of Apple's Mail.app email client, the iChat and Adium AIM clients, and the open-source Fire IM client.

All these applications can keep copies of your communications on your hard drive. ComStats reads these logs and graphs some data using the JFreeChart graphing utility. Over arbitrary periods of time (days, months, or years), you can chart data such as:

the number of emails and chats you have
the size of emails and the duration of chats
the amount of emoticons you use in your mails and chats
the amount of links you send in your mails and chats

What's new in this version:

fixed huge problem reading POP mailboxes, they should work now
added preference to view different types of graphs (bar graph or line graph)
added version compatability notes in the preferences
put the graph back in an image well
cleaned up some code

Weird Problem - Version: 1.1.1, 10/30/2004 05:59PM PST

Maybe my iChat is just weird, but it saves my logs to:
~/Documents/iChats/

With titles in the format of:
Anna Johnson on 2004-04-10 at 08:20

ComStats reads every chat log title as an individual person, as in:
Anna Johnson on 2004-04-10 at 08:20 and Anna Johnson on 2004-03-12 at 07:12 are different people.

This makes graphing impossible.

I was able to get the email portion to work by fiddling with the preferences. When the "count 'deleted messages' mailboxes" was checked I received an error. As long as that is unchecked it worked. Try it.
