Well spotted, Carlos. I took my own medicine and choked - it looks like you have to use:
journalctl -b 0 SYSLOG_FACILITY=2 -o short-iso
to get /var/log/mail from today.
Oh! :-( Yes, that does produce about a hundred lines of output. I haven't processed email today.
Having to specify 2 instead of mail is a gigantic usability issue. One can only surmise that this isn't being used much.
Indeed. I happen to know the number, because my logs are written in this format (which I'm going to change one day, again): <2.6> 2016-03-03 20:03:28 Telcontar postfix 12625 - - disconnect from localhost[127.0.0.1] The two numbers at the start are facility.priority. Which took some hours of reading, because the default rsyslog format printed a combined number. But to find out the numeric value for a certain facility from scratch is not that simple. Once you know where to look, yes. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
