You are on the right track. First we need a manual page (user
interface design) for configurable logging limits. Postfix has
hard-coded limits on the amount of free text, on the length of a
host/domain name, and on other lengths of text that is written to
logfile. The result of this discussion could be one global limit
for all categories, or different limits for different categories,
or both (where the global limit becomes the default value for the
limits for different categories). It should not be more complicated.
