Dan I have, and have always had, an empty /var/log/imapd.log so I'm not going to make progress until I fix that. In n /etc/rsyslog.conf # cyrus imapd #local6.* /var/log/imapd.log - tried this first. local6.debug /var/log/imapd.log auth.debug /var/log/auth.log and in /etc/imapd.conf syslog_prefix: cyrus syslog_facility: LOCAL6 If I remove the file /etc/imapd.log then # /etc/init.d/rsyslog restart # logger local6.debug 'test log message' # cat /var/log/imapd.log Nov 29 15:06:42 dell2600-1 brad: test log message Obviously syslog is working local6. But still no messages from cyrus! Therefor I'm now stuck with this secondary problem. I have followed the cyrus instructions as best I can, but no go. I say again this has all worked for years, albeit with an always empty imapd.log There must be some missing cyrus syslog configuration.
