The items in /cache/logwatch aren't part of the Nagios XI install but may be part of your standard install..
Can you run the following to determine your MTA

I normally don't like to piggy back on someone elses threads, but it seems like this would be a valuable addition to troubleshooting in this instance.
I'm noticing our maillog is growing rather large as well. I've messed around with rotation/compression optons, but I'm noticing a number of connection refused entries in my maillog.
I'm getting connection refused to 2 different mail servers on our system but emails are being sent just fine. Is there a configuration somewhere that's causing this that I haven't caught yet?
Code: Select all
Apr 8 08:15:58 nagiosserver sendmail[7653]: r33FRYYn004946: to=<[email protected]>, ctladdr=<[email protected]> (501/100), delay=4+21:48:24, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=esmtp, pri=5880586, relay=mail2.company.org., dsn=4.0.0, stat=Deferred: Connection refused by mail2.company.org.

Hmm, odd as well, would you mind splitting this off into a new thread? "phpbb3 won't allow us to break someones reply off and force a thread creation...I don't believe."
