Well,  I  don't  believe  the  filenames are "indefensible," let alone
"insanity,"  or  "idiocy."  They're  an  eensy-weensy, near-negligible
example  of a big problem in IT. Your naming suggestions are certainly
improvements,  but  the  problem here was really a lack of literacy on
all our parts with a tiny quirk of IMail. Compared to all of the other
quirks you have to keep track of with most software, this is nothing.

Note  that  _any_  of  the  IMail  logfile  names  can  be  completely
customized by Kiwi Syslog or a similar package, splitting POP3 logs by
domain, splitting W2 logs by auth failures, etc. The less often people
parse  their  logs  with some sense of forensic urgency, the less they
care about naming conventions. Perhaps going forward, this poster will
change the names using KS for easier access.
