which introduces the problem that POP3 is double-logged
i guess ":msg, contains, "): disconnecting" ~" in rsyslog.conf no longer takes effect

Aug 14 22:54:37 mail dovecot: pop3-login: user=<user at example.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=80.120.xx.xx
Aug 14 22:54:37 mail dovecot: pop3-login: user=<user at example.com>, method=PLAIN, rip=80.120.xx.xx

given that "example.com" has 60 addresses which are checked by a exchange connector every 3 minutes
you can calculate the logsize by 2400 loglines per hour which could be 1200 without disconnect log

is there a option or would it not make sense in case "login_log_format = %s" skip the second line
in default (non-debug) logging, most are gardly interested in how long a POP3 user took to receive
his mails, the more interesting is how often, from which IPs and how much failed logins from where

thanks!
