newsyslog(8) with -m flag

Greetings,

I want root to be notified whenever a new entry appears in /var/log/authlog 
.

In /etc/newsyslog I have:

/var/log/authlog        root:wheel      640  7    *    168   ZM root

In /var/cron/tabs/root I have:

1-59    *       *       *       *       /usr/bin/newsyslog -m

I ssh to the server to generate a new entry in /var/log/authlog ... no mail 
is sent.

What am I doing wrong?

Any advice will be appreciated,
Damon
