I thought the create command created the new log with those permissions
not changed the owner/permission of the rotated logs. Alice said she
would like:
-rw------- 1 root root 3105240 Mar 13 22:04 maillog
-rw-r----- 1 root somegroup 1079031 Feb 24 04:39 maillog-20190224
-rw-r----- 1 root somegroup 7237640 Mar 1 12:59 maillog-20190228
-rw-r----- 1 root somegroup 1297508 Mar 3 04:21 maillog-20190303
-rw-r----- 1 root somegroup 1319371 Mar 10 08:17 maillog-20190310
