one of my colleagues deleted /var/log.

we need to see maillog, but postfix is not writing to it, although 
postfix is MTA'ing just fine.

in /var/log, ls -all gives:

total 3
drwxr-xr-x   2 root  wheel  512 Oct 25 01:09 .
drwxr-xr-x  18 root  wheel  512 Oct 25 00:50 ..
-rw-rw-r--   1 root  wheel    2 Oct 25 01:09 maillog

we re-created maillog manually and set the permission as on another 
fbsd box here.
we've started and stopped postfix, but no go.

uh, help

tia,
Len
