The lmtp may be enough, "connect, saved user, saved user..., disconnect", but I was curious if it is worth while to add more info logging for the proxy, primarily which recipients are sent to which proxy. I was thinking of local patching it, but I'll generate up something more inline with official code if it is desired.

+1 for adding this detail to logging for LMTP.
