kern too. There's already this:

| kern.*                                -/var/log/kern.log

So:

| *.*;auth,authpriv.none                -/var/log/syslog

Should exclude both mail and kern (duplicates):

| *.*;auth,authpriv,kern,mail.none              -/var/log/syslog

Title:
  mail should not log to /var/log/syslog by default

Status in rsyslog package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: rsyslog

  Particularly on servers, email should not be logged to /var/log/syslog
  by default, as this clogs up syslog with tons of stuff that is already
  being logged to /var/log/mail.log, /var/log/mail.err,
  /var/log/mail.info, and /var/log/mail.warn by default.

  Suggested change in the default /etc/rsyslog.d/50-default.conf:

   -    *.*;auth,authpriv.none     -/var/log/syslog

   +    *.*;auth,authpriv,mail.none      -/var/log/syslog
