I have configured /etc/log.d/logwatch.conf MailTo field to email to 4 address's. The first is the default root and the other 3 are users in our domain myself included.
However only the last MailTo address is receiving the email (me). On my ES3 servers the mail is received by all address's in the config file.


Is this an issue with the version of logwatch on 2.1? (version 2.6-1) ES3 has version 4.3.2-2

What does that line look like? Have you tried separating the addresses with commas (if you don't currently) or without commas (if you do?)


The .conf file for 5.2.2-1 (the latest and greatest) and the manpage at <http://www2.logwatch.org:81/tabs/docs/logwatch.8.html> seems to imply it will only mail to a single address. However, it can be configured to send output to stdout instead of email; it should be pretty easy to write a wrapper to take the output and mail it to multiple addresses.

(It's probably equally easy to hack Logwatch itself to support multiple addresses, if I'm correct that it doesn't, and send in the patch so we can all use it... race you? You're probably faster...)
