Linux 1.2.3 (ELF) and 1.3.59 (patch6)
sendmail 8.7.3

I want to fine-tune the location of my sendmail logs so that they all
go into the one file, say /usr/adm/maillog.

Presently, it's all going into /usr/adm/messages, but I don't want the
mail logs to go there - sendmail creates too much clutter and I would
rather keep it all separate.

I've been trying to configure syslogd via /etc/syslog.conf to get this
to happen, but with only partial success.

In /etc/syslog.conf...

# mail logs
mail.*				/usr/adm/maillog
# all info/notice logs except mail
*.=info;*.=notice;mail.none	/usr/adm/messages

Originally, it looked like this:

*.=info;*.=notice		/usr/adm/messages

I was getting notification of connection and then (internal) delivery,
and also of things like smtp connections with expn requests.  All I'm
getting now in /usr/adm/maillog are delivery logs. :-(

For example previously I'd get things like this (apologies for the long lines):

Feb  6 18:21:07 tashi sendmail[10927]: trishul.sci.gu.edu.au [132.234.31.10]: expn tonyn

All I'm getting now is the last entry.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Please Cc any follows... they are redirected to comp.mail.sendmail,
but it's a group I only occasionally visit.  Thanks.]
