I see.
Then probably a different approach might be easier: Providing an option
to change the name under that esmtpd gets logged into syslog.

I think basically changing this line
courieresmtpd.c:                clog_open_syslog("courieresmtpd");
from a hardcoded string to something configurable would do, right?
