    use Courier::Filter::Logger::IOHandle;

    my $logger = Courier::Filter::Logger::IOHandle->new(
        handle => $handle
    );

    # For use in an individual filter module:
    my $module = Courier::Filter::Module::My->new(
        ...
        logger => $logger,
        ...
    );

    # For use as a global Courier::Filter logger object:
