No, at the moment you have to pipe the logfile in to it, so if your exim logs to /var/log/exim/mainlog, then run tail -f /var/log/exim/mainlog | exitop If you want to start with a lot of data (i.e. so you don't have to wait for ages to see something, which might be the case on a low-traffic server), try tail -n1000 -f /var/log/exim/mainlog | exitop That will feed 1000 lines of the log file in, and then continue watching it "as it happens".
