When logs (e.g. /var/log/maillog) are rotated (e.g. to /var/log/maillog-YYYYMDD) is there a way via systemd or whatever to assign read permission to a specific group? Right now, for example - ls -l maillog* -rw------- 1 root root 3105240 Mar 13 22:04 maillog -rw------- 1 root root 1079031 Feb 24 04:39 maillog-20190224 -rw------- 1 root root 7237640 Mar 1 12:59 maillog-20190228 -rw------- 1

Hi, I'm trying to figure out which process is rotating my maillog every Sunday at 4:03 am. This happens on all of my centos 4 boxes. AFAICT, logrotate is not running. This is from a fairly minimal install, so I'm assuming this is a default process. --- [root at penguin ~]# ls -l /var/log/maill* -rw------- 1 root root 230603836 Sep 27 16:30 /var/log/maillog -rw------- 1 root

Hi! I am getting "Cached message size smaller than expected" errors since dovecot-2.1.x. Until now, I thought that those errors don't do any harm, I assumed that the cache will just be rebuilt after the error had been detected. However, since dovecot 2.2.x (I tried 2.2.7 and 2.2.10), the errors sometimes seem to actually cause mail access to fail. With dovecot-2.1.1, only the

How can I disable PostFix maillog ( /var/log/maillog ) ?

I looked in the place where dovecot logs everything ... the maillog. I didn't see anything but the log is huge and I could have easily missed it. Is there a certain error or phrase I should look for? If so please advise. On 3/13/2015 3:05 AM, Steffen Kaiser wrote: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > On Thu, 12 Mar 2015, Cliff Hayes wrote: > >> I recently

Hello, I have a curious phenomenon. Dovecot logs normally to /var/log/maillog. If I restart my server, dovecot loggs to /var/log/audit/audit.log. If I restart dovecot, dovecot loggs to /var/log/maillog again. And I think, wenn logrotate is restarting, dovecot logs to audit.log. But I don't know why. Any Ideas? greetings Ralf

Maybe I'm missing something here but doesn't logrotate have the 'postrotate ... endscript' block for its configuration files where you can run any command you desire?

Any suggestions to help me troubleshoot a "killed by signal 11" problem with Postfix? I've Googled and fiddled, but cannot figure it out. I have no idea where to look/start. Based on this post, Wietse suggests this type of problem happens when there compiled with different libraries. I tried ldd on various programs and found they all seemed to line up, but I know little.

I have enabled the feature in sendmail.mc to check with spamhaus for spammers.

Hello, now I have done this: under http://wiki.dovecot.org/Logging?highlight=(logging) Rotating Logs is the following string ----------------------- /bin/kill -USR1 `cat /var/run/dovecot/master.pid 2>/dev/null` 2> /dev/null || true ------------------------ This string I have insert in /etc/logrotate.d/syslog under the lines: postrotate /bin/kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslogd.pid

My /var/log/maillog was getting pretty big because of lots of testing and re-configuring I've been doing lately with both Dovecot and Postfix. I figured just remove /var/log/maillog and it would be re-created. It wasn't--not by Dovecot, not by Postfix. I had to manually create a new one, put one character in it, save it, properly secure it with chmod, and then Dovecot (and postfix)

Hi, I want to create a new log /var/log/maillog for postfix each day and so i created a new logrotate config for the log and removed it from /etc/logrotate.d/syslog. ~]# cat /etc/logrotate.d/maillog /var/log/maillog { daily rotate 31 start 1 compress create 0600 root postrotate /etc/init.d/postfix reload > /dev/null endscript } After

I have a rsyslog config that suffixes the date to the filename and holds the log files in a non stabdard log directory based on its srver name (long story). Example - config includes: ... $template mailLog,"/var/log/external/%fromhost%/maillog-%$YEAR%%$MONTH%%$DAY%.log"... # Log all the mail messages in one place.mail.* ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?-?mailLog... so
