Is it possible to modify rotation settings for maillog on Plesk server?

Question

Is it possible to change rotation settings for /var/log/maillog?

Answer

It is not possible to manage rotation settings for /var/log/maillog. By design, /var/log/maillog is rotated every day during Plesk Daily Maintenance task.

As an alternative, /var/log/maillog.proccessed rotation settings may be changed instead. After Daily Maintenance Task is executed, all log data is moved from /var/log/maillogto /var/log/maillog.proccessed.

To modify /var/log/maillog.proccessed rotation settings, perform the following steps:

1. Log in to the server via SSH.

2. Edit the settings in the /usr/local/psa/etc/logrotate.conf file:

   CONFIG_TEXT: /var/log/maillog.processed {
   
   weekly
   missingok
   rotate 3
   compress
   nocreate
   }

Note: Use one of the following words to set the rotation frequency: hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly.
