for some reason qmail spreads things out into 3 or 4 or 5 different
log files, one for sent, smtp, pop, imap etc, its a real pain to go
through those files, i dont know if its qmail or syslog-ng thats doing
it, but ive been wanting to find a way to combine all those logs into
one mail.log file for easy grepping.....
thanks for the input.
