I too get high ASCII characters, but on a regular basis across multiple systems. I have about 20 hosts logging to two syslog-ng systems. I see this anywhere from a Foundry routers, to Solaris 8, and Lucent Maxes: ..smf-jumpstart A<A0><E1>$<30>Dec 1.. ..smf-modem-01 ^B^D^E<B4><134>ASCEND: slot 2.. ..smf-dist-01 ^B^D^E<B4><14>smf-dist-01, Interface...

Hi, in some logs I discovered an ascii character with the value 181 instead of a newline: ... D4-RIPE|<181>Dec 20 19:02 ... Unfortunately I can't reproduce this error. But maybe it's a known error? It occured when logging whole mails to syslog. Does anyone know a possible cause?
