NameError prevents script from running

Description

With the latest version of Email2Trac on Windows Server 2008 r2 and Python 2.7.1 (with Windows Extensions installed), I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/.../Email2Trac/email2trac.py", line 2382, in <module>
    logger = setup_log(settings, os.path.basename(settings.project), debug_interactive)
  File "C:/.../Email2Trac/email2trac.py", line 2281, in setup_log
    log_handler = logging.handlers.NTEventLogHandler(logid, logtype='Application')
NameError: global name 'logid' is not defined

The phrase "logid" appears nowhere else in the script. I tried just changing "logid" to 1 and got a different error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/.../Email2Trac/email2trac.py", line 2382, in <module>
    logger = setup_log(settings, os.path.basename(settings.project), debug_interactive)
  File "C:/.../Email2Trac/email2trac.py", line 2281, in setup_log
    log_handler = logging.handlers.NTEventLogHandler(1, logtype='Application')
  File "C:\Python27\lib\logging\handlers.py", line 917, in __init__
    self._welu.AddSourceToRegistry(appname, dllname, logtype)
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\win32\lib\win32evtlogutil.py", line 35, in AddSourceToRegistry
    "SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Services\\EventLog\\%s\\%s" % (eventLogType, appName))
pywintypes.error: (5, 'RegCreateKey', 'Access is denied.')

Changing this to a different log type prevents this from happening. Instead of ending on a fatal error, perhaps if Windows logging does not work, default to a local log file instead?
