Hmm.. I copied the "writing-style" from the syslog.conf because I wanted 
it to be both on localhost and on loghost. When I removed the "loghost" 
stuff is started to fill the logs.

Another annoying thing I've noticed is the configure-script. Can someone 
please add /usr/lib as a possible place to have sendmail? =)
by adding --with-sendmail=/usr/lib/sendmail I have to press the keyboard 
an extre 33 times =).

Ok, but why can't I read it? I can list the active file, but when I try 
to list the available messages I get nothing. The active file says I got 
messages there and I used sm to actually see the message.

Anyone have any hints? I'm out of ideas..

Mvh,
