mail rsync logs

Hi all,
I have a rsync daemon and I'd like my users to get a mail with the content of
the log so they can see what was backed up or if something failed.
I separated the logs per user via the syslog and I use "post-xfer exec" to
execute a script that will search for the last PIDs for rsync like so:
id1=`ps -ef | grep "rsync --daemon" | tail -n 1 | awk '{print $2}'`
id2=`expr $id1 \+ 1`
from there, my script does the rest, but if I have more than one client, it's
doomed to fail.
There must be a simpler way to do that than what I am doing now. Did I miss a
chapter in the man pages?
Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks
-Ed
