setting up email notification from syslog.log?

[bibi-phoque]

Hello,
My syslog.log would reach 100 MB per week and I usually just look for ftp and http access. To make it easier (as it is such a big file), I would like to setup triggers, for instance send an email when somebody connects to my ftp.
Anybody got a script that could do that running on is wl500?
Cheers,
Yann

Don't know if this will help - but I used it to send emails to myself from the asus

Thanks, this will help to generate the email, however I have no idea how to setup the trigger.
Also, do you know how to stop iptables event going to the syslog.log? This is crazy, my syslog is about 300MB and I cleared it last week!

Actually, what is the appropriate level for syslog, when I'm only interested in ftp login and http activity? Right now my level is 7, I just switched it to 6 and it didn't change anything.

My syslog.log is spammed with iptables logs, making it unreadable. I get this 2 or 3 times per second:
