RE: [cobalt-users] A few stupid questions... (How to find email address from logs and how to compress files)

First Question about the email, you can check /var/log/maillog

Second Question about compressing files you can use tar. For more info type 
man tar at shell prompt or see the URL Below:

A few stupid questions...

1) In the process of moving my email app over to another I lost an 
email that is really important... Every email goes through my server, 
so I've been hunting for the email address. Can anyone give me a list 
of places I can look to find the logs... I've search a few already 
without any luck...

2) My main web.log is getting pretty big, 50MB...

 From the command line, can anyone tell me what is the command to 
compress the log and make a new one?

Many many thanks.

Regards,

Charles Teton
