Re: [Bump] No log to syslog after upgrade
Sorry I took so long to respond to this. Of course it was me who should RTFM :-P Since we are using CGPSA we are not using SPAMD if I understand it right. From the CGPSA website ( http:// www.tffenterprises.com/cgpsa/ ): The filter works efficiently, by directly using the SpamAssassin API. It does not rely on a daemon process such as spamd or on the execution of shell scripts (as the usual process for utilizing SpamAssassin with CommuniGate servers does). I guess what I saw in our old logs must have been from tests with SPAMD, unless something changed between versions (I upgraded CGPSA and SA at the same time). Thanks for your help Theo and John, much appreciated. I also got to agree with Kurt about the possibility for SA to write to syslog. It would help to analyze and adjust SA if you could pull out some statistics (or is that possible another way?).

And that seems a bit silly, doesn't it? Or was there a good reason for that decision? Perhaps an invocation flag could be added? Kurt
