That did not work. It did not recreate the logs.
As for what OS I am running: I do the LFS (linux from scratch) and I am running the 2.4.25 kernel. I do not have the RPM package installed nor am I very excited about installing it as I prefer building from source. I can find the logrotate source but it appears to be for FreeBSD. So who know. heh
Any further suggestions? :)

You are probably recreating the log files with rights that prevent Courier
from writing to the files. Try deleting the new log files and restarting
Courier. Courier should be able to create the log file itself with proper
rights when it sees it doesn't exist. As for a log rotater, you didn't
say much about what OS your running but I use logrotate which comes as an
RPM on Redhat along with logwatch which emails me summary information from
the logs each day. Works very nice. Just do a google for your platform.

Robert Horton said:All right, this may be a stupid question, but here goes:
Courier was logging to /var/log/mail.log. I do not have a log rotating
program (someone want to recommend one with a link?). mail.log was
getting fairly large so I moved mail.log, created a new one and
restarted courier. Instead of logging to the new mail.log, it started
logging to sys.log. This morning I did the same thing with sys.log and
restarted courier, but now it does not appear to be logging to anywhere!
Anyway to make it log to where it is supposed to?
Thank,
Rob
