...(did you expect to get mail from exim? ;-)
Yes, seriously. Because I foward, as mentioned above, all mails to root to the user. So reciving that warning was inteded. But I want to stop the *daily* warning after noticing it.
By default the paniclog empties itself being logrotated. Which happens when the file amount to 10 MB ;-) .
Now, you may logrotate it manually issuing:
logrotate -f -v /etc/logrotate.d/exim4-paniclog
Unfortunately there *was* a bug preventing logrotate working as expected when called with the "-f" option. But the maintainer responded quickly to my bugrepot and thus logrotes v3.8.7 (debian/incoming) soved the problem
i would simply empty it.
This would work, but I woudl loose this entry in the log. No big deal, but I wanted to preserve a complete log.
