Making a hard link to Postfix service smtpd and giving it another name (like smtpd) makes it syslog its reports under a new name. This is half-supported in Postfix, i.e. it works now, but no promises are given for the future. ln /usr/local/libexec/postfix/smtpd /usr/local/libexec/postfix/smtpd2 Then letting postfix accept mail coming from amavisd not with a standard service 'smtpd': 10025 inet n - n - - smtpd but by specifying an alternative copy of smtpd service (e.g. named smtpd2): 10025 inet n - n - - smtpd2 This will allow checked and passed mail from amavisd, well as all notifications, to be logged under smtpd2 service in syslog, leaving the rest logged under service smtpd.
