Comment 1 Karel Srot 2011-09-22 10:21:37 UTC
I mean smtp port, not snmp. sorry. 
When I allow this with semodule -M, rsyslog works fine and mails are delivered.

Comment 2 Miroslav Grepl 2011-09-22 11:20:13 UTC
We need to add it.

Comment 3 Daniel Walsh 2011-09-22 13:03:00 UTC
This should be by boolean.  I would not want rsyslog just mailing off log files.

Comment 4 Miroslav Grepl 2011-09-22 13:11:51 UTC
"logging_syslogd_can_sendmail"

is fine?

Comment 5 Daniel Walsh 2011-09-22 13:25:27 UTC
Sure default to false.

Comment 6 Miroslav Grepl 2011-10-03 14:02:44 UTC
Fixed in selinux-policy-3.7.19-114.el6
