From the wiki:
log_path = Use this logfile instead of syslog(). /dev/stderr can be used if you want to use stderr for logging (ONLY /dev/stderr - otherwise it is closed). (I dont understand the above references to the use of stderr)
Took a while for me to figure out what the ONLY thing meant. I changed this now to:
# Log file to use for error messages, instead of sending them to syslog. # /dev/stderr can be used to log into stderr.
Just ignore the stderr thing.
info_log_path = For informational messages, use this logfile instead of the default (What exactly is an informational message, and what is the default?)
Changed to:
# Log file to use for informational and debug messages. # Default is the same as log_path.
Informational messages are mostly things like "user logged in", "user logged out".
Can I selectively suppress logging like:

Not really. Why do you have non-mbox files in the users' mail directories?
