Hi!
Usually this is used like this:
const struct event_category cat_oidc = {
.name = "oidc"
};
struct event *plugin_event = event_create(list->ns->user->event);
event_add_category(plugin_event, _oid);
event_set_append_log_prefix(plugin_event, "oidc-shared-mailboxes-plugin: ")
...
e_debug(plugin_event, "foo");
e_warning(plugin_event, "bar");
now you can do
log_debug = category=oidc

Dovecot unified event filtering
Hello,
I have an issue with debug logging when using a custom plugin for Dovecot. In
my plugin, I create a child event of the session's user event:
```c
struct event *plugin_event = event_create(list->ns->user->event);
event_set_name(plugin_event, "oidc_shared_mailboxes_plugin");
event_set_min_log_level(plugin_event, LOG_TYPE_WARNING);
event_set_append_log_prefix(plugin_event, "oidc-shared-mailboxes-plugin: ");
```
I then use passthrough events like the following:
```
e_debug(event_create_passthrough(data->event)->event(), "Modified
mailbox_list_iter_init was called.");
e_warning(event_create_passthrough(event)->event(), "Did not find required key
'roles' in the JWT body.");
```
`e_warning` and `e_error` work fine.
If I understand the documentation for the unified event filtering
(https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/event_filter/#unified-filter-language)
correctly, I should be able to enable debug logging for with `log_debug =
event="oidc_shared_mailboxes_plugin"`. However, this setting has no influence
on the logging behavior. The setting I have to set for the debug logging to
work is `mail_debug = yes` (I do not have to set `log_debug` at all).
Is this intended behavior or am I doing something wrong?
Best regards,
Felix Auringer
