To a certain extent the true answer is both, but the bulk of what 
gets written by syslog is designed by  the program calling it...

I.e. Syslog prefixes the date and process number etc. -- up to 
the colon after the PID.
The rest of the line is done by (in this case) qpopper.
Grep for calls to syslog. The code surrounding that should be what 
you're looking for  (without looking at the code). It may be that
the syslog call is made by a subroutine that gets called elswhere
(consistent with the way I remember qpopper doing things). In that
case, you'll be grepping for calls to the wapper subroutine(s).
