Logrotate problems

[Martin <martin.lyberg@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I'm seeing some odd behaviors when rotating maillogs.

I have the following settings for the maillog:

# vi /etc/logrotate.d/postfix

/var/log/mail.log {
        rotate 4
        missingok
        create 640 root adm
        postrotate
        #reload syslog
        /etc/init.d/sysklogd reload
        #reload postfix
        /etc/init.d/postfix reload
        endscript
        nocompress
        weekly
}

I don't want to compress my maillogs, yet they get compressed:

-rw-r----- 1 root adm   32661 2006-08-10 08:11 /var/log/mail.log
-rw-r----- 1 root adm 1086547 2006-08-10 06:26 /var/log/mail.log.0
-rw-r----- 1 root adm  171383 2006-08-09 06:25 /var/log/mail.log.1.gz
-rw-r----- 1 root adm    1336 2006-08-07 16:39 /var/log/mail.log.3
-rw-r----- 1 root adm     546 2006-08-07 16:38 /var/log/mail.log.4
-rw-r----- 1 root adm       0 2006-08-07 16:30 /var/log/mail.log.5
-rw-r----- 1 root adm       0 2006-08-07 16:24 /var/log/mail.log.6

Why is that, am i missing something?

Thanks in advance
