As far as I know such a transformation is the job of a MUA for example, it's not the MTA's task to do things like this, so maybe postfix is unable to do that, and it's right that way. It's matter of taste but I would be upset to see non-ASCII chars in syslog files anyway, but it's my problem :) I think some syslog servers supports to redirect the log into the stdin of a program, so you can have "on-line" conversion with that way, though ... I am using this to have own custom logging format without the need to convert the log file after the log rotate (which requires double of the disk space and you can have it only after you have the log file to process, so otherwise I wouldn't have information in my own format but I must wait a day ...)
