Hi, I managed to get mailgraph working with exim and it's showing everything just fine accept for outgoing emails and i think i know why.I've setup mailgraph to use the logfile "/var/log/maillog" because the actual exim logfile eg /var/log/exim_mainlog is not in syslog format and it won't work.The exim documentation says [list]

mainlog is mapped to LOG_INFO

rejectlog is mapped to LOG_NOTICE

paniclog is mapped to LOG_ALERT found that [URL=http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch-log_files.html]here so i'm on Centos 6.5 (64 bit) in /etc/rsyslog.conf i have mail.* /var/log/maillog
yet no outgoing email information is there is it because i'm using MailScanner ?.I don't like half work i want it to work completely.

  Hello :) You could try temporarily uninstalling MailScanner, but keep in mind that both mailgraph and mailscanner are third-party applications. You may receive more user-input for this issue directly from the developers or support teams of those applications. Thank you.

  Hi, I found the problem.MailScanner is using the same logging "text" in /var/log/maillog for both incoming and outgoing messages so i can't create a regex to feed to that log to grap the outgoing messages but you're right not a problem for CPanel.
