By default slrn doesn't log errors so as to provide a recallable
log. I believe that slrn is designed chiefly for interactive use by a
user who is in front of the terminal with the running slrn process;
someone who would see the error message as it is displayed. slrn does
provide --debug, an option that could help you if you're trying to
diagnose a posting issue:
--debug FILE Write debugging information to FILE
Relatedly there is also an option to log the killed articles:
--kill-log FILE Keep a log of all killed articles in FILE
Where "FILE" in both options is the name or path of a writeable file
you wish to log to (probably wise to log each option to separate
files).
These descriptions came from "slrn --help" output.
slrn is free software -- users are free to run, inspect, share, and
modify the program under the terms of the GNU General Public License
version 2 or any later version (see the COPYRIGHT and COPYING files
for details). So if you want to you could write code to support a log
that works in the way you need it to work. You could also provide a
patch for John E. Davis (slrn's author) to incorporate in the next
version of slrn.
