It gave it a shot with adding:

        elsif($prog eq 'sendmail') {
                if($text =~ /mailer=local/ ) {
                        event($time, 'received');
                }
                if($text =~ /mailer=relay/ ) {
                        event($time, 'sent');
                }
                if($text =~ /reject=/ ) {
                        event($time, 'rejected');
                }
        }

However I am not sure about the definitions of the events bounced and
received.

I think it means:
rejected:	I did not like the message and told the sending server to
		take a hike and keep the message.
