Hello,
I had successfully used postfix for years and now I am trying to

postfix clusters in docker and in particular interested in how I can
direct
all postfix logs from a container to other places.
I do not find in postfix configuration how one can achieve this
without any
local syslog daemon. Can someone please confirm that it's not
possible to
capture postfix logs without the assistance of any local syslog
daemon?
If so, can I put a feature request to be able to adjust which syslog
server
postfix logs to as well as ability for postfix to log to
stdout/stderr.
the spirit of the docker container is that one is supposed to have
only one
software running in it and it will be nice if we do not have to
maintain
any syslog instance in the container. My plan is to run syslog in
another
container and have postfix send all logs there.
Thanks
mr wu
Using the Docker "syslog" log-driver you can direct syslog messages from
a container to an arbitrary IP & port number.
See https://docs.docker.com/engine/admin/logging/syslog/#usage
