I suggest to turn on debug logging on both the client and sender: http://www.rsyslog.com/doc-troubleshoot.html
Often, the debug log points to an obvious problem source. If it does not, feel free to mail me the logs to [email protected] BUT let me know you did so - I usually do not monitor this account.
