You are right Thorsten, It is not easy. But the question remains, is it an acceptable feature request? If yes, ye can create a ticket, and we'll see when it will be implemented.
To remove the logger completely he can not. But he can reduce the size to 10K and max backup to 1. Regards, Alex Guten Tag Alexandru Zbarcea, am Donnerstag, 10.

And some changes, like deleted loggers, are simply not recognized as such because it's a complex topic to do so.
