Greetings all;

Since upgrading to stretch, my syslog is being spammed by freshclam, 
clamav, and spamd. These has their own logs in wheezy, so syslog was how 
I kept track of the hardware.

So syslog is growing rapidly and gets rotated in just a day or so, and 
that means a "tail -fn xxx" watching it is stuck looking at the old 
file, whereas I could just leave it run for a couple months and 
the "tail" would also remain current but now I am lucky to get 3 days 
before the display is hung again  I'd like to fix both problems if 
possible.

How on stretch?

Cheers, Gene Heskett
