Can we please, pretty please, downgrade these messages:

$self->log(LOGALERT, "from email address : [$from]");
$self->log(LOGALERT, "to email address : [$rcpt]");
$self->log(LOGALERT, "Message too big: size: $size (max size: $max_size)");

in lib/Qpsmtpd/SMTP.pm to below LOGWARN? Especially the first two. A global change in that file of LOGALERT to LOGINFO or LOGDEBUG would do the trick.

Someone trying to parse the logs is going to do something with logterse and get this info anyway. LOGALERT for the above is just noise and a waste of rather a lot of bytes in the log file.

[Having to cope with daily log files approaching 2Gb each (I have 6 servers generating logs that big) makes you appreciate every wasted byte. Yes, I've hacked my copy, but I hate having to hack released code images.]
