Whenever something is added to the /var/log/messages file, I recieve a mail notification to the root user, thus creating a mess everytime I log in as the super user.
This is my (uncommented part of) syslog-ng.conf, if it's something there that's doing this:

Code:

options {
long_hostnames(off);
sync(0);
stats(43200);
};

source src { unix-stream("/dev/log"); internal(); pipe("/proc/kmsg"); };
destination messages { file("/var/log/messages"); };
destination console_all { file("/dev/tty12"); };
log { source(src); destination(messages); };
log { source(src); destination(console_all); };

How can I disable this feature?
