yeah, only syslog entries that are not caught by any of the other
filters will end up in the files messages.$HOST, if a syslog entry
matches a filter it should be redirected to the appropriate log file.

as for local log entries maybe something like:

source src { udp(ip("192.168.1.1")); internal(); unix-stream /dev/log; };

would work ?? I'm not sure I found the above unix-stream entry here:
