You can do it by applying appropriate filtering rules to multilog.
However, it's not going to be useful. Failure and deferral messages only
have the delivery tag:
@4000000039dde6360d85b15c delivery 298676: failure:
172.16.130.10_does_not_like_recipient./Remote_host_said:_550_unknown_user_<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>/Giving_up_on_172.16.130.10./
@4000000039dde56e3436fb44 delivery 298646: deferral:
Sorry,_I_wasn't_able_to_establish_an_SMTP_connection._(#4.4.1)/
They don't contain any details about sender or recipient.
A better approach wuld be to log everything and then use qmailanalog
to extract the failure and deferral details. The matchup program from
qmailanalog matches message details and can show complete deferral and
failure details.

You'll need some way of converting the tai64 timestamps to unix epoch
timestamps. Russ Allbery has such a program, as do I - see www.qmail.org
for details.
