ubuntu - disable logging to syslog from a specific process/from the rsyslog process

Question

I have an ubuntu machine, and a server app running on it.

I also have rsyslog running which collects logs from the server app and write it to my own logs.

The issue I am having is that, it seems that the messages that are sent to rsyslog from the server app, are also written in var/logs/syslog.

How can I disable this? I don't want any of the server-app related messages that are sent to rsyslog to appear in var/logs/syslog.

Add a & stop; at the next line following the command that writes to your logfile.
