Hi, I'd like to send logging for emails sent from a specific IP to a different syslog facility. I am able to define the port used by the sending machine and have configured a new instance of smtpd to listen on 26 with the '-o syslog_facility=' parameter. This successfully captures the connections coming in on 26 but I'd also like to send the smtp side of things to the same facility. I was thinking transport maps but seems to only be able to examine rcpt addresses. Is there a more simple way to do this. Ultimately I'd like to have an instance of postfix (both smtpd and smtp) listening on a separate port and logging to a difference facility so I can isolate log information without disrupting current activity. Thanks, Rob Kelledy
