I've been experimenting with Binc as a replacement for Exchange 2000, using Thunderbird as a client and it seems to be working very nicely so far.

However, implementing syslog logging is confusing me...

In the bincimap.conf file I have:

        type = "syslog"
        syslog facility = LOG_DAEMON

as suggested in the docs. But the default /xinetd.d/imap file has:

        server_args     = --conf=/etc/opt/bincimap/bincimap.conf
                                --logtype=syslog -- /bin/checkpassword
                                /opt/bincimap/bin/bincimapd
        log_type        = SYSLOG daemon info


Why is the log type specified in two places? Does specifying "LOG_DAEMON" in bincimap.conf and "daemon" in xinetd.d/imap have the same effect?
