Hi Michael,
I'm both able and willing to patch it, but I'd prefer to see a patch
that simply moved the logging facility from mail.* to ipop3.*. That
would allow all the logging to still continue, but move them to a
separate file with a new entry in syslog.conf. Is this difficult? I'm
not much of a C programmer...
Thanks,
