Hi,

I'm under the last release of Plesk, on a deidcated server I rent at 1&1.

On a regulary basis, watchdog send me a rapport about that my /var directory has reached it's storage limit and another message that the problem has been solved later.

Today, I checked my var folder and found that the mail logs in var/log/ were important as other logs :
mail.err: 41.1Mb
mail.info: 59Mb
warn: 42Mb

For my /var folder, it's around 4 Gb (du -k -s command)

Also, I checked the usr/local/psa/var/log folder and found that I have other logs for the mail.

Where do I find in the plesk control panel the location to setting up the log rotation of these files?

Can I remove all these files without any problems? (I mean, withou broking something) the .processed and the compressed ones.

Anyway, if someone know how to avoid this var storage problem, I'll be glad to here :)

Thanks, and sorry for this confused message :)
