[syslog-ng] Not all messages getting to program destination

[Matthew Hall]

Could you paste a snippet (even if paths, etc. are edited) so we could try to repro / interpret it in detail?

The lines parsed per-minute is not matching a grep -c on the file destination. stats indicate no dropped or queued messages to either destination. If I cat the file to the same destination script on the command line, I get the same counts as I do grepping the file directly. I would expect that the script would return the same results from the shell as when running as a destination in syslog.
