Sent with even less detail... the list bounced the reply, sorry for
duplicates...




Thank you!

4) adding a specifier as to *which* log, as in the use of :panic: below

      logwrite  = :panic:,VRL,$sender_host_address,$tod_epoch


Lets you put things into the log *you* choose, even if contrarian to
inbuilt log assignment.


Works with two caveats, and a question.

Question the VRL in the example, I can not find any detail so I assume
it is simple text...

1)
I got excited about choosing my own log and only succeed in logging to
panic.log When I choose from defined exim logs it works as expected.

...:saheaders: and :/var/log/exim/saheaders: both failed...

Success logging to reject.log, some messages may not in fact be rejects
but... If I put the messages in main.log my logwatch scripts will never
finish. As it stands they take up to 12 hours to run now.

2)
I have not weighed the impact of this yet, but I am leaning towards
leaving it as is...

logwrite        =:reject:X-Spam-Score: $spam_score, X-Spam-Report:
$spam_report


is writing the entire entry on a single line. Useful for grep, not so
useful for reading.
