The error invalid level/facility: good is the clue here.  It looks 
like somewhere in your filter, md_syslog() is being called with a first 
argument of good.  This will fail, as there's no such log level.

Cheers,

[Mimedefang] syslog: invalid level/facility

[Tim Boyer]

I'm getting the following in the log file when receiving mail:

Feb  6 21:10:32 tolstoy mimedefang-multiplexor[28288]: Slave 0
stderr:syslog: invalid level/facility: good at
/usr/local/bin/mimedefang.pl line 553

That's in the middle of the md_syslog routine.  I made sure
Unix::Syslog was installed and up to date.  It looks like it's failing
on the line

syslog($facility, %s, $msg);

This is a reinstall on a RHE3 machine - we moved machines, and went
from 2.44 to 2.49.  Syslog-ng.conf and the other configuration files
are identical to a known good working 2.44 system.

Commenting out

if ($Features{Unix::Syslog}) {
my $num_fac = convert_log_facility_to_number($facility);
syslog($num_fac, %s, $msg);
} else {
syslog($facility, %s, $msg);
}

allows the system to receive mail - but is not, I understand, an
optimal solution.

Thanks much for any assistance...
