Send Dovecot logs to rsyslog

[Nicolas Fo]

Hello, thanks to take time for my problem.
Just tested with this command from my mail server: logger -p local5.info
"hello world"
This message is well sent to my Graylog server.
It seems it's a problem between Dovecot and rsyslog :/
Any ideas ?
Thanks
Nicolas
