This is not an Exim issue, neither is it even a pop3 issue (which has
nothing to do with Exim either).
However, here's one way you might do it, with a recent enough syslog-ng:
filter f_pop3_line { match("pop3-access string"); };
log {
...
filter(f_pop3_line);
destination(discard);
flags(final);
...
};
Alternatively, something along the lines of:
filter f_pop3_line { not match("pop3-access string"); };
log {
...
filter(f_pop3_line);
filter(other_filters_to_select_pop3_log_lines_you_want);
destination(pop3_logfile);
...
};
All untested.
