SUNs oftentimes log into either /var/log or /var/adm.  Check
/etc/syslog.conf for a line something like

mail.info	/usr/spool/mqueue/syslog

or

mail.info	/var/adm/syslog

Also make sure that a loghost is defined in your DNS or /etc/hosts file
(ping loghost).  If you make any change to syslog.conf, send a HUP signal
to syslogd.
