Nonsense.  Of course he prefers that the logging still take place in
/var/log/maillog.  You can be sure he prefers this because he said so.
That's a bad idea.  However, he can get a similar effect by creating a
symlink like this:

    ln -s /service/qmail/log/main/current /var/log/maillog

That's like putting the cart before the automobile, to turn a phrase.
syslog is a piece of crap.  You *can* use it, but it's a waste of
resources that could be better spent delivering email.
