[syslog-ng] Email alerts en syslog-ng 3.3.5

[Roberto Carna]

OK Gargely, special thanks for your help....so I'll upgrade to 3.5...

And the last question please: what web interface do you recommend in
order to view and filter logs events ??? Now I'm using Php-syslog-ng,
but I´d like to know if there is another graphical interface more
powerful.

Thanks a lot!!!

Roberto
