Hello again,

Reconfigured/recompiled courier-imap with --with-syslog=LOCAL3 option. It works now, I have the logs in /var/log/imapd.log.

But still it remains the problem of changing/specifing the log facility at startup time, without recompiling the code. Any solutions? And also, i'm planning to use both imap and pop3 servers. How can I specify different logger facilities for each process, in order to have different log files?

Thanks in advance, Alex

Hello,

I've revently installed Courier-IMAP as imap/pop3 server. The default for courierlogger facility is LOG_MAIL I want to change the logger facility in order to direct the log messages to other file than the default mail log ( /var/lib/maillog )

Can I do that at start time of courier-imap server ? I can't seem to find any options concerning the logger in courier-imap server configuration files I've already tried modifing imapd.rc startup.script

/usr/lib/courier-imap/libexec/couriertcpd -address=$ADDRESS \ -stderrlogger='${exec_prefix}/sbin/courierlogger -fa cility=LOG_LOCAL3' \ -stderrloggername=imapd ....

but it does not seem to work, because the logger called this way appears to accept only one parameter : stderrloggername.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Alex
