News gateway logging glitch.
Looks like messages posted to the lists through the news <-> mail gateway (2.0.8) aren't ever logged into the system. They go into qfile and I never see entries in either post or smtp. That means, effectively, if you're trying to do accounting or usage reports, they're invisible, so reports are understating the actual usage of the list.

Messages traveling from mail->news don't get separate logging (except in the case of errors), but they're posted to mail first, so they should show up in logs/post.

Ah, okay. But there should still be an smtp log entry when it's sent ot the subscribers, and it doesn't seem to happen.
