Hello all,

Sorry if this has already been covered, but I can't find the answer in any
docs.

I am trying to have syslog-ng send certain syslog messages via email so that
I don't have to bother with a log watcher like swatch, etc. I tried
different combinations of:
destination email { pipe("/bin/mail"); };

But that just overwrote the mail bianry (not fun).

Any advice?

TIA

Sb
