Hi Roberto
Just noticed a small bug in the activity log/log files. I have my system local set to German/Switzerland, which defines the date/time format as dd.mm.yyyy hh:mm:ss. In the connections tab, this is shown correctly:

but in the activity log, the format shown is mm.dd.yy:
05.23.06 00:00:37:589 -- (74232) Connection from: 200.208.105.121
Would it be possible to correct this, so that the format of the system locale is used for the activity log/log files as well?
Regards,
Mike

mikek,
Actually that is by design... we need the logfiles to have a consistent format as our internal troubleshooting tools that parse them may not work otherwise. Furthermore, there are by now several 3rd party reporting applications that import SpamFilter's logfiles, and if we were to change the log formatting now it's very possible that this would cause them to stop working.
