Negative point to all these approaches (exilog and similar ones
as well): Every single user needs to maintain the rules and
pattern and will never be sure to have the complete logging
until a detailed and complete walk through the exim logging-code
and the pattern provided by the log-project in question.
The code-walk is to be repeated with every new exim version.

A centrally maintained/supported solution (interface/lib/module
or at least log format documentaion) would be preferred.
