<p>The filename can be overridden by the <code>filename</code> property
of the incoming message.</p>
<p>A newline is added to every message. But this can be turned off if required, for example, to allow binary files to be written.</p>
<p>The default behaviour is to append to the file. This can be changed to overwrite the file each time, for example if you want to output a "static" web page or report.</p>
