Hi,
LOG_NDELAY is the only option for openlog() in dovecot 1.1.2. Wouldn't be LOG_NDELAY|LOG_PID as option parameter much more useful? Without logging the pid, it is impossible to match 'Disconnected' log entries and the corresponding session start/login. Therefore I suggest to use
LOG_NDELAY|LOG_PIDin the options of i_set_failure_syslog() at all 6 occurrences which passes it to openlog().
I know that it is possible to - use logging to file - patch it myself but I can't see good reasons in not using LOG_PID here. As far as I know, most other programs specify LOG_PID.
Without LOG_PID: Jul 31 10:21:08 name dovecot: IMAP(hsg): Disconnected: Logged out bytes=28/242
With LOG_PID: Jul 31 10:21:08 name dovecot[17016]: IMAP(hsg): Disconnected: Logged out bytes=28/242
