logwatch isn't supposed to be a debug log. It just summarizes stuff from 
the "real" logs so you don't have to dig through them to find anomalies. 
Once logwatch turns up something interesting, you need to look at the 
original logs to see what was going on. For this case, I'd suggest grepping 
/var/log/* for one of the messages (eg. "grep sendto /var/log/*"). You can 
then see the message in the context of other messages around the same time.

It's called "source code". ;) If I get a message I don't understand, I 
unpack the source and go hunting....
