Ok one more question. I have: $template DynMail,"/var/log/server-logs/mail/%HOSTNAME%.mail.log" mail.* -?DynMail
Which logs all mail to the %HOSTNAME%.mail.log. My guess would be: $template DynMail,"/var/log/server-logs/mail/%HOSTNAME%.mail.log" mail.* :fromhost-ip,isequal,"192.168.1.1" -?DynMail But as Rainer explained these are both filters which won't work. So how do I use "fromhost-ip" to send only "mail.*" logs from a specified host IP to the "DynMail" template? Thanks, Ralph Ralph Crongeyer wrote: > Oh, > I tried that but I had it on the same line.
