If possible, I would
like a running tallly of where mail is going, maybe like a console type
of application. I am getting tired of watching my $LOGFILE to see where
mail is going.

Try opening a shell executing 'tail -f $LOGFILE' and let it go...
If this is the way you like to do it, then even better is doing it
like this (on linux, at least):
tail -f $LOGFILE > /dev/tty7 &
This will send it all to that console, opening it if it's not used.
I often have things like this running to watch my syslogs:
tail -f /var/log/messages /var/log/syslog > /dev/tty7 &
(To close the console after you've finished with it, use the
`disalloc' utility).
