rsyslog alerts after upgrading to 1.8.4b11

rsyslog is configured to only send email when the syslog message is "critical" or above in the level of severity.

Lee, I did a grep | wc -l on "kernel" and it looks like my NAS is seeing those entries and freaking out as the number of emails equals the number of lines containing "kernel." Those are displayed typically during boot. I added a filter to my NAS to not report those messages although, in hind site, that may prevent me from seeing kernel issues post-boot sequence. It look like the issue is predominately on the QNAP side but perhaps the boot messages are slightly different in 1.8.4b11?
