The filtering provided by Syslog is pretty crude and requires bouncing the syslog service to change. If you use syslog-ng you can specify a pipeline as a destination, either a command or socket, etc... so you can get much more granular about what logs to keep and you can modify the logging level without effecting the service. If your mail host uses the old syslog, which ours do, you can ship the logs over the network [syslog support network logging, even the old one] to a syslog-ng log server where you can play with the logs all you want. <http://mosg.googlegroups.com/web/Logging-WMLUG-200906.pdf?gda=yRVyn0oAAABw6HckmRln_4yUX8BzAUFLv7fdB_xUGxz6YUeUtmWt4DR3ZV5hCDKRXT-CthMVOlIwLF4ohGElurQ42NwcJ7pp_e3Wg0GnqfdKOwDqUih1tA&gsc=jvC6DwsAAAAobgScHyPB6BxVxV3YA2wp> > > Rebuild cyrus using a LOCAL syslog facility rather than MAIL.
