Mike, adding that switch to syslog didnt seem to work. I found some other posts through google which claim that stopping syslogd and spamd and starting them again fixes this up, but it hasnt worked for me.
If anyone else has any ideas, they would be greately appreciated.

The way I resolved it was to add the '-r' switch to my syslog initscript. Mike
