Do you have Mailman installed? The Mailman RPM distributed with RH7.3 has
a bug in its logrotate script that would exponentially proliferate files
in /var/log/mailman. If you see a huge number of small or empty files in
that directory, delete them all, upgrade to the errata Mailman RPM, and
continue on your merry way. It's possible that some other logrotate
script has the problem, but I haven't seen any other broken ones in the
distribution in a while.
