DESCRIPTION
This class is a file logger class for use with Courier::Filter and its filter modules. It is derived from Courier::Filter::Logger::IOHandle.

The name of the file to which log messages should be written. timestamp A boolean value controlling whether every log message line should be prefixed with a timestamp (in local time, in ISO format).
