dovecot - Jul 2016 - Feature Request

I would like to request an additional optional argument for queue-id to
dovecot-lda.  The intended use for this argument is to include in the logging. 
From what I can tell, the queue-id size is not consistent between the various
MTAs and so would need to be allocated dynamically when read during
initialization.

This element in the log messages would make it easier to find the trace of a
received email.  Generally I can easily get the queue-id generated by postfix
(or sendmail - I use both).  One grep would then give me the whole picture
rather than having to dig out the message-id and doing a secondary grep to
obtain the lda log messages.

I find it interesting that every submission to this list results in a quick
response that says moderation is required since I "am not a member".
However, I am a member...

It wouldn't work with LMTP though, which is nowadays the preferred method of
delivering mails to Dovecot. So I'd rather not add features that didn't
work with LMTP.

You seem to be a member. I don't see anything in logs about you being
moderated though..
