[PLUG] Logwatch Configuration

   I'm trying to remove the long list of 'Unmatched Entries' from the postfix
section in each day's logwatch report, but have not found the proper way to
do so.

   In /usr/share/logwatch/default.conf/services/postfix.conf there is no
key/value pair for Unmatched Entries. It must be called something else, but
I don't know what. Here's an example from today's log report of what I'm
trying to remove:

  **Unmatched Entries**
         2   Jun 19 05:51:56 salmo postfix/smtpd[20705]: check_namadr_access:
name pfdbricks.petfooddirect.com addr 66.255.176.34
         2   Jun 19 05:51:56 salmo postfix/smtpd[20705]: check_domain_access:
pfdbricks.petfooddirect.com
         1   Jun 19 15:03:34 salmo postfix/smtpd[27477]: lost connection

         1   Jun 19 15:02:12 salmo postfix/smtpd[27477]: lost connection

         1   Jun 19 08:34:58 salmo postfix/smtpd[23068]: lost connection
after DATA (0 bytes) from unknown[83.242.249.242]

   There's a long list in the postfix.conf file. Which category do I need to
uncomment, and what value do I assign to prevent it being reported other
than as a summary, if at all?

TIA,

Rich
