fetchmail.logrotate   [plain text]

# fetchmail.logrotate
#
# This is an example logrotate configuration file, editing required
# before use. It is useful if you have fetchmail logging to a separate
# file, /var/log/fetchmail as shown below.
#
# This file has been written for Debian Linux systems.
#
# Other systems will probably require adjustments, such as: how
# often to rotate, how many files to retain, how to name them, if
# compression is desired, which user and group the file should be
# created with, and where the .pid file is. Check the logrotate
# documentation for details.
