Hello,

So what I have to do to log fetchmail logs and maildrop log to
/var/log/$YEAR/$MONTH:$DAY/fetchmail.log and maildrop.log ?

I try that:

destination df_maildrop {
file("/var/log/$YEAR/$MONTH/$DAY/maildrop.log"); };

filter f_maildrop { program("^maildrop"); };

# maildrop
log {
        source(s_all);
	filter(f_maildrop);
        destination(df_maildrop);
};

but it doesn't work :-(

Thanks.
