Yeah, I first called it "syslog" but then remembered that we support logging 
to non-syslog targets (like files), too.  And the Unix tool is called 
"logger", too :)  But "syslog" would be fine with me, too.

Yeah, I first used "spamd" and in the next patch "daemon" and had to decide 
for one of them.  It was a 50-50 chance and I already had more "daemon" 
entries so changed the "spamd" ones :)  Short:  I don't care what that 
facility is called (as long as its not "foo").

Japp, noticed that too late.  But I'm not sure if all of these are really 
info()s or should be dbg()s.
