Package: fetchmail Version: 6.3.6~rc3-1 Severity: important -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
I will try to explain: fetchmail runs in daemon-mode with the following (relevant) options in /etc/fetchmailrc: set logfile /var/log/fetchmail set no syslog So let's say, I start fetchmail in daemon mode (user: fetchmail): /etc/init.d/fetchmail start Now my /var/log/fetchmail(.1.gz) log at last says: fetchmail: Mi 27 Dez 2006 20:19:49 CET: schlafe 1800 Sekunden lang (sleeping at ... for the non-German readers) Then the file has been rotated and a new /var/log/fetchmail was created. But fetchmail did not write to the new file. The file stayed empty until the daemon was restarted, although there were several fetchmail runs during the log-rotation and the daemon restart. I observed this issue several times. Please tell me, if you need further information. I will try to provide them.
