log to syslog, using "logger"
edit your
/service/qmail-*/log/run file
my file looks like this

/service/qmail-smtpd/log/run
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/local/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/bin/logger -t qsmtpd -p mail.info

yes, i know logger isn't reliable and so on, but iam not hosting anything 
important, sending and receiving only my mail.. splogger does add a 
timestamp before the normal log line, which i think isnt very useful 
because syslogd also adds a human readable timestamp..
