Counters can only be increased if the action is called. I think that the action suspended itself and kept suspended. In this case, rsyslog core does not call the action any longer. Consequently, no counters can be increased. If that was the case, everything works as expected.

The patch is trivial: http://git.adiscon.com/?p=rsyslog.git;a=commitdiff;h=d89d453e5f4f24221aa86e11002dda5095cac7a3 Thanks again for your help. Any more feedback is appreciated ... and will be acted on weeks later ;) Rainer > I'll happily do some more tests (maybe do a dirty script after the next > round), but if you need any help with the test env (like a step-by-step > instruction), let me know.
