If you get rid of the [global] heading and just put those items at the
start of the file, it should work:
[...]
transfer logging= false
syslog facility = uucp
[...]
Your config file was specifying a module named "global", and those
settings didn't affect other modules.

Improving this is on the list of future enhancements/fixes. The current
code caps the user-supplied verboseness at 1 (so you can't get -vvvv
amounts of logging at the user's whim), but it would be better to have
the server-side logging totally under the control of the config file.
