I am at the end of my teather with this, so will backup my postfix confs, uninstall both logwatch AND postfix. Then install postfix from scratch (using all default confs, just changing domain name so it can send mail), then install logwatch and see whether it's a misconfiguration on my part, or a genuine incompatibility.
I'll try all variations of Postfix + LogWatch (Postfix 1.1.13 + LogWatch 4.x, Postfix 2.x + LogWatch 4.x etc... with LogWatch 5.x).
I'll let you all know how the tests go, although for those of you who use Postfix AND Logwatch and have NO problems, any chance you could tar up your logwatch and postfix confs? (obviously omitting any sensitive IPs or details) Just so I can take a look, see if I'm missing something?
Thanks.

IMHO, I think you are wasting your time. It is well known in some circles (http://www2.list.logwatch.org:81/pipermail/logwatch/2003-July/000406.html) that postfix will not play with logwatch. That is why pflogsumm was born. It would be to your benefit to install pflogsumm (http://rpmfind.net/linux/RPM/contrib/noarch/noarch/pflogsumm-1.0.11-1.noarch.html). The app is easy to install, and it does a beautiful job of reporting what is in the maillog. I have only one small problem I haven't taken the time to work out regarding pflogsumm reading the maillog.1 after cron does it's thing. [I'm sure it's an easy fix. I just haven't done it.]
YMMV,
Bill
