This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
Technically, MRTG only adds the point-in-time data to the RRD. Then, RRDTool \
immediately updates the various RRAs (whatever they are) in accordance with the data \
sent.
So, however many new RRAs you add, they will get updated when MRTG sends the new \
data. You may need to create your own code to actually report them, though.

This is a good thing to know. If I alter an .rrd file to add MIN, will
mrtg add MIN-type data to that RRA?
