Apologies for not being able to reply you in time. Since my last post, I had put my logcheck (the stable version) packages on hold. I upgraded them today to version 1.2.41 and they look to be working fine. Maybe you can mark the bug as done. Will bug you again if I find something abnormal. :-) Thanks for all your help.
