Hi,

i have a Debian LAMP server with Plesk.

I found many outgoing email, and in /var/log/mail.info found as source :

13:03:13 44251 postfix/pickup[22000]: 016078823428: uid=0 from=<root>


I already exclude PHP ( because i use directive mail.log = /mylog/maillog.log and i check that email is not starting from php).

I already change root password and check with some antirootkit tool that server is clean.

How I can obtain more detail about who is sending this email (es how to increment log detail of postfix)?

Thanks

Hi

It may be system related emails like cron.
