<br>
Using multi-line-mode without the multi-line-suffix option WILL result in message loss.<br>
When syslog-ng is running in multi-line-mode, it buffers multi-line messages until it sees the start of a new message. When it sees the start of a new message, it flushes the buffered message, and puts the first line of the new message in the buffer. However
if syslog-ng shuts down, or receives a SIGHUP (reload), any lines currently buffered are discarded. Given that syslog-ng can't stay running forever, and it will get shut down or SIGHUPd eventually, using this feature will result in messages getting lost.<br>
