Two things:
1. please don't top-post, it makes it difficult for people in the future going through list archives and trying to follow a conversation thread.
2. please post your syslog.conf. I've recently been doing a lot of syslog work (out of necessity) to fix very similar issues, and it all turned out to be the syslog config I had in place.
Hopefully I'll be able to help.
Michael.
