SmarterMail XMPP needs to log IP address!

Hi,
 
   Just curious why the XMPP logs for SmarterMail v14.4.5801 and prior version DO NOT log the IP Address of the client computer/device that connects?
 
   It seems the logs also could be better, the logs format is pretty harsh to understand, but getting it to log the IP address, so you can search for that would be a nice start.
 
Thank You,
-dave

They log the communication between the client and server. It seems IP addresses are not in the logs at all.

Hi Matt,
 
  I am being told by support this is a "Feature Request", to me it doesn't make much sense why it wouldn't be designed to log the IP Address from the initial release.  Isn't this a security risk, if someone tries to get into your XMPP system, now we can't know as it doesn't log the IP Address anywhere in the XMPP logs.
 
Thanks!
