rsync log issues

I got rsyncd v2.6.6 protocol version 29 running on Suse Enterprise
Server 10. Here's what my /etc/rsyncd.conf looks like -

max connections = 0
log format = %a %h %o %f %l %b
log file = /var/log/rsync/rsync.log

[nibbler]
path = /backup/nibbler
comment = nibbler
read only = no
use chroot = no
timeout = 3600
transfer logging = yes

[remote]
path = /backup/remote/
comment = remote
read only = no
use chroot = no
timeout = 3600
transfer logging = yes

All I am trying to do is get an email notification on how many bytes
have been transfered from which server each night.

I tried -

[remote]
path = /backup/remote/
comment = remote
read only = no
use chroot = no
timeout = 3600
transfer logging = yes
log file = remote.log

with the hope to cat/awk/cut/grep each log to get something emailed
out. But it doesn't generate any log.

Is there any easy way I could get rsync results emailed out for each
individual server from rsyncd daemon?

Thanks.
