I also have had 2 or 3 cases now of the maillog sitting at 0 size and
<br />>
nothing logged there, even though mail is otherwise running fine.
<br />>
Nothing found in the messages log indicating a problem either.
<br />>
Restarting sendmail doesn't resolve this. Anyone have a suggestion for
<br />>
something else to try short of rebooting that VPS (which is what I've
<br />>
resorted to)?

<br /><font size="2">If that happens again, try "service <font size="2">rsyslog restart", and then "service <font size="2">sendmail restart".
<br />
<br /><font size="2">The <font size="2">first restart<font size="2">s the logging services, which can sometimes hang in the process of<font size="2"> starting a new set of logs. But if <font size="2">that keeps happening - you've got a deeper problem that should be investigated/addresse<font size="2">d.
