Re: [Dovecot] Reduce logging auth-worker

Hello Timo

We would like to reduce the logging by increasing severity, we don't use syslog since we use

log_path = /var/log/dovecot/pop3.log

why?

Is there a way auth-worker can be made to log warn|error instead of info?

Constantly 1/5th of the log file is filled with auth-work info connecting to mysql socket, which we do not need to see unless, well, we need to see it either via debug, or if there is a problem, I know this can be done from syslog, but we prefer not to use syslog, and the wiki does not indicate it can be done?

but that is exactly why syslog exists instead re-invent the wheel
