Well, can we verify whether the sent mail generated in the /var/log/mail.log? Also, (assuming that you are running Postfix), I assume that the configuration are identical on both 32-bit and 64-bit systems, right?

Folks
Logwatch is doing its thing properly on my 32-bit servers, delivering the report by mail to my root account once a day sometime around 3:30am.
On the 64-bit systems, no mail is occurring. From the "cron" log on a 64-bit system, there are lines like:
cron-20110821:Aug 21 03:36:23 XXX run-parts(/etc/cron.daily)[9727]: finished 0logwatch (where "XXX" stands for the server name)
but no report is sent.
If I run logtwatch manually, by simply typing logwatch as root, I get the mail.
Is this a known issue? Is there some information I could supply that would help identify the reason? To the best of my knowledge, I made no changes to the logwatch
configuration.
Thanks

I apologize to the group; my observations were wrong and LOGWATCH seems to be performing exactly as expected. I was misinterpreting the mail data.
