The LOGFORMAT usually defines the method field as junk - %j. You can create a custom logformat that specifies POST for that particular field, and %j for everything else, and so that when Analog finds an entry with POST in the relevant field, the rest of that entry will be ignored. If you don't currently have a LOGFORMAT command (Analog is using automatic detection to recognize the logformat), then you'll have to generate a LOGFORMAT command for the rest of the logfile (Analog can use multiple LOGFORMAT commands - just put the POST one first).
