I can't say that what I see in my logwatch mail is useless...

Notifications that a mailbox is over quota.
Notifications that a hard drive / partition is too full.
Just to name two of them.

Other things that are useful daily information for an admin, where I get
to pick which username is the admin.  But, not really good information
to pop up on the desktop as a warning to whoever's logged in at the
moment.  Most users wouldn't know what to do about them, or shouldn't be
allowed to attempt to do something about them.  Perhaps with the
exception that they should clear out their own mailbox, instead of leave
everything in the inbox.

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point
trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the
public lists.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
