Hi...
I had similar problems.
In isoqlog it is mentioned to remove any s12345 stuff from
/var/qmail/supervise/qmail-send/log/run
which looks like nonsense to me.
in fact, multilog ALWAYS uses a "s" switch. only that it uses default
values of about 100kbyte if you supply it with another size.
so, rotating the log on a daily basis, you would either have to use
the patch for multilog which rotates the logfile, whenever it receives
a HUP, or your logfile is not truely rotated daily. by applying a
small s value however, you can come near to a daily rotation...
please notice, that isoqlogappend is only run when the "current" log
is rotated.
so if you don't notice anything happening it might just be, because
your "current" file is smaller than 100kbyte.
well, another possibility would be not to use multilog..
