TwitterHi there
I use Plesk 18.x "Obsidian" in Debian 10.
Question: How to disable log for mails (smtp, ingoing, Spamassassin) ?
So i saw, many files in directory /var/log will get HUGE after sending mass mails with (some with attachements)
E.g. the following files:
/var/log/sa-update.log
/var/log/maillog.processed
Questions:
1.) Regarding Spamassassin, which creates the file /var/log/maillog.processed: Why the file sa-update.log gets HUGE (~35GB) if there a ALMOST NO INCOMING mails? Does Spamassassin also check EVERY outgoing mail so it seems?
2.) How can i disable (or decrease at lease!!) the "general" mail logging which logs to the file /var/log/maillog.processed?
3.) I executed that commands...
cat /dev/null > maillog.processed
cat /dev/null > sa-update.log
...to empty that huge files, but the "df" command still shows me a 99% usage on root partition - which makes ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE!! (WTF...)
The plesk server is virtualized. But why there are only 653260 bytes left on /-parition after emptying the files maillog.processed AND sa-update.log ? Makes no sense i.m.o.
Thank you very much for your feedbacks
