Hi Andreas & Tomas,

No bikeshedding needed!  Given the emerging consensus, which includes a
senior committer, I will happily prepare a patch that makes the name of
the log file configurable.

Like both of you, I also find mail.log more agreeable.

Anyway, it's easy to change that default later, but it would be harder
to change the name of the option, which is part of the API.

Is "log-file" okay?

Kind regards
Felix
