hi

I have set up a spamassissin server . I need to rotate  the  logs in the
/var/log/spamd.log file . I added the following  directives in the
/etc/logrotate.conf

# system-specific logs may be also be configured here.
# added by agnello 4 march 08
/var/log/spamd.log {
weekly
compress
rotate 4
}

Well i jsut want to verify what  "rotate 4" really means --- according to
the man pages it says "The *number* of times to rotate a logfile before
removing it."

Also how do i check if these logs are actually going to be compressed and
rotated .

Thanks!! all inputs will really be of great help
