Hi

In inn 2.2-1999-12-21-03-02
Many of the supporting scripts/programs seem to  syslog 
directly to the 'news' (or 'mail') facility, rather than
taking note of the compile time configurable parameters like LOG_FACILITY

This has proved awkward for us when we have sought to set LOG_FACILITY
to eg local5

It would be great if everything that logs to a configurable place.

SUGGESTION:  this might mean that the log_facility settings should
be places in inn.conf, so that all parts of inn can access it and then use it.

PS  yes, I know that it would be helpful if I provided patches for this
    but I am heavily drawn off to other projects for the next several 
    months ... after that maybe(?) I can attempt it ...
