But I have a small HD, so disc space is precious (the server locked up once due to the logs taking up a 3rd of the disk space). So I backup the logs once a week to an external server then delete them. I know this is an extremely bad practice, but it works for me. Only issue I had doing this was with the dovecot permissions, but that's an easy fix.

I mainly made this post because I have seen a few posts with people having issues with email. Not saying deleting logs is a good idea. Just pointing out how to fix email if it breaks.
