That's what databases are for. To be useful it would have to include more information then login_failed. As it is now I can't really see what is is good for

The horde_histories table gets filled up with tens of thousands of "login_failed" messages probably due to dictionary attacks. I believe it would be more useful to log to a file instead, eventually the size of the horde_histories will be a problem in some installs. Here we get a few hundred per day.
