Those are local6.debug messages. You could modify your syslog configuration
to disregard them.

Anyone know why the default config (for rsyslogd) includes debug messages?
The upstream default does not appear to. There were also some sasl debug

that it was a (libsasl) package deficiency that debug messages were showing
up in syslog:
