Not sure what logger you are running, but this is what I have in my 
system loggers config file (for syslog-ng):



# Mail
destination mail { file("/var/log/mail.log"); };
filter f_mail { facility(mail); };
log { source(src); filter(f_mail); destination(mail); };

filter f_messages {
        not facility(mail);
};



Hopefully this helps some,

Andrew Bruce
