i figuered out the reason why you have not found the rule i mentioned. the rule i mentioned is from a file named 'courier-pop' and this file gets installed with the 'courier-pop' package (didn't know that)!

FILE                                                                           PACKAGE

etc/init.d/courier-pop                                                mail/courier-pop
etc/logcheck/ignore.d.server/courier-pop                mail/courier-pop
etc/logcheck/violations.ignore.d/courier-pop            mail/courier-pop

i am not that sophiticated with logcheck philosophy. but i think alle rule files for logcheck should be centralized under the control of the logcheck team. does every application provide it's own rule files?

that strange and confusing. should i open a bug against 'courier-pop' for the wrong pattern? do i have to check every rule file if it's under the control of the logcheck team or if it's a rule file provided by another package?
