I have Dovecot LDA logging fine right now but I really don't like having my log files world writable because I have users with shell access. Is there a way to have Dovecot LDA log to syslog or would it be possible to write a mini-daemon that could log to syslog on behalf of Deliver or something else altogether? Jonathan

I'll set it up later this evening and unless you see another email from me it will have worked fine. Although its simple maybe this could be added explicitly to the wiki? There's at least 1 person that couldn't figure it out :P Jonathan
