Afternoon'

I've been hunting around looking for a log rotation daemon.  I've reviewed
both logrotate and newsyslog as they seem to be the most common two from
what I've seen.  Unfortunately they won't rotate logs in the manner I'm
looking for as far as I can tell.

I'd like to rotate logs off daily/weekly/monthly depending on the log file;
however, I don't want to retain the last x number of logs.  I'd like the
rotated logfile to be saved with the date it was rolled off as part of the
file name ex. mail-20050908.log to a separate dir and never remove any of
the old logs.  

I'm guessing that a custom written script run via fcron might be the best
method to archive what I'm looking for.  Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks, Everyone
