With elog it is possible to submit messages to a password protected
logbook without specifying the -u option.  I.e. NO PASSWORD is
necessary to submit a message.  I assume it is related to the problem
of expiring password-cookies while entering the message using a web
browser.

In version 2.0.4 of eLog I was having some problems with saving my 
configuration file once I edited it on the web using the config. command.
I keep getting the message "Cannot open file %s: elogd.cfg".  I made sure 
the file was in the right directory.  I dont know if I am doing something 
wrong or if its a bug?

Has been fixed in 2.0.4 (as you can see from this entry). Please make sure 
not to submit too long lines via "elog". For browser submissions, the line 
length is limited to 78 characters, but not for "elog" submissions.

Has been fixed in 2.0.4

The exit status of elog is always 1.  It should be zero for
a successful submission.

When the option 'Reverse sort = 1' is used then the first entry
is not displayed (ID=1) when threaded mode is requested.

Probably you can see the problem using this link and switching 
on reverse sort.
