Package: rsyslog
Version: 4.6.2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: sid

I modified rsyslog.conf to give me messages from fetchmail on xconsole,
so I added mail.info to that rule (see below).  However, I saw no change
in the logging behavior when I did either

invoke-rc.d rsyslog reload

or

invoke-rc.d rsyslog force-reload

only this finally helped:

invoke-rc.d rsyslog restart

I think this is not as intended.
