This is what I meant, when I have suggested you should always write which commands you ran exactly and what the output was exactly.
@dap1: The history command will do the command part for you. (I think the defaults for both bash and zsh is 1000 commands, kept separately per account.) For this purpose, it's probably enough, you likely can get a very good idea without the output.
1000 is not actually that many, especially if you don't have the collapse same command and length limits set. So if you think this might be helpful, I'd suggest doing
date >> ~/command.log; history >> ~/command.logimmediately as 'root', self, and 'mailman'. (Of course if you're a good kid and use 'sudo' instead of logging in as 'root' you won't have much in root's history.)
