You may want to check out AWStats (http://awstats.sourceforge.net/). This is normally used for graphing web server statistics, but someone wrote a perl utility (maillog2commonlog.pl) that converts mail logs in sendmail, postfix, smail or qmail format, so AWStats can process them. The way it comes only reports on who got the email, the size of the email, and the date/time, but since all these utilities are written in Perl (and free), it may be able to be modified to include the Subject line also.
