[AMaViS-user] Don't reset snmp.db at startup ?

I was wondering why snmp.db is reset at startup... is there some real need
for that (perhaps internal statistics, counters growing too much or
something like that) ?
I'm pulling some of that data straight out of the db with an simple
evolution of amavisd-agent, and dump it into mrtg, and I'd like not having
at least counters like InMsgs restarted at every configuration tweak
(counters would still wrap at some time but I can live with that).

I didn't find support for this and I'm not familiar with BerkelyDB... I
suppose changes would have to been made either in child_init_hook() or
directly in Amavis::DB::SNMP->new() ?
Hmmm I see in that db is child process data, too, this means just keeping
the old db instead of creating a new one could be harmfull, since at least
that selected data should be initialized freshly every time ?
