Thank you. I was still guessing if my understanding was correct about !, !!, + and ++ being respectively same but for prog vs host. It is nice to have ti clarified.

Same effect as !prog vs !!prog, as mentioned in the documentation: "work the same way as their prog counterparts". Again, from the same syslog.conf(5) manpage: > !!prog causes the subsequent block to abort evaluation when a message > matches, ensuring that only a single set of actions is taken. !* can be > used to ensure that any ensuing blocks are further evaluated (i.e. > cancelling the effect of a !prog or !!prog). Please carefully read that page, it has all the information you need.
