(1) If you want auth.info in a separate file, add ;auth.none to the entry for /var/log/messages. So it would become more like: *.*;mail.none;news.none;auth.none -/var/log/messages (2) If you want the auth messages only in /var/log/messages, just delete your syslog.conf entry for /var/log/auth.log. Which way you do it just a matter of personal preference.

The file should include a line like: local6.debug /var/log/imapd.log You probably also want to log SASL messages with a line like: auth.debug /var/log/auth.log After installation and testing, you probably want to change the .debug component to something a little less verbose. Create the log files: touch /var/log/imapd.log /var/log/auth.log So you will want local6.info or somesuch.. Cheers, Patrick
Re: disable logging
Logging is done via syslog, check your syslog.conf for the following local6 facility and/or mail. You probably have them in debug, change it to something higher...
