Nothing added to maillog

[Superman859]

Something strange is going on with my server. Nothing is being updated as it should.

I just got reverse DNS set up for my server and decided to try it out. I sent some emails and went to look at the maillog. Well, it's empty 0.00 kb.

Looking in /usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog

It shows that the last date was early this morning, but the log is empty. The maillog.proccessed has some info in it, but it's dated the 7th (it's almost the 12th now).

What's going on? I haven't made any changes with the server, yet things suddenly are no longer updating and working properly.

Besides this, my statistics are not being updated as they should for disk usage. That's another issue and in another thread, however. But it does make me wonder if it's all linked together somehow.

same problem

Hi, I have the same problem over here.

The maillog is 0 bytes. Is it possible that this has to do with the ownership of the file.

I have this problem after I did the following actions:
- deleted the orginal maillog file (/usr/local/psa/var/log/maillog)
- created as 'root' a new maillog file

Anyone any suggestions?????

Command:
service syslog restart
