No logging occuring to /var/log/messages

I made a stupid boo-boo yesterday and filled up my root partition.
Didn't take long to correct the situation but in the process, I guess the
system paniced and deleted all of my /var/log/messages and messages.x files.
Ok, that's nice... but having reinstated a messages file (empty) and checked
on rsyslogd (which is running) and rebooting, I still don't get any messages
in the file.
I've used logger to create a message but it only goes to /var/log/syslog and
not to /var/log/messages. Googling for the problem has not yeilded any
solutions.
Anyone have a clue to this?
