Ok, sounds reasonable > BTW, why are the mail files handled separately? Also, rsyslog could be > reloaded twice every night, perhaps that could be optimized as well. > I grouped all log files that are rotated daily, and split all weekly rotated files into mail and others (for better readability). rsyslog should not be reloaded twice every night (at least it should only happen once a week) as the first reload happens daily, the second only weekly.
