Hi,
I was just looking into my logs directory and I noticed a 10mb bounce log file... maybe we should consider using something like log rotating? ie log.0, log.1.gz, log.2.gz etc... or should this be left as a task for the admin and/or distibution maintainer? another option would be to set a maximum log size
Ricardo.

Yes.
No.
Apache doesn't do its own log rotation, Sendmail, Postfix, and Exim don't do their own log rotation (tho they provide tools to do it "properly"). And all of them, like MailMan, maintain their own logs rather than running thru syslogd.
I see no reason for Mailman to be anny different.
