As replied on Messenger (I repeat if for everyone else), this is a normal and good behaviour. Import is supposed to import all your settings, includign the logging directory. Some people want it to be kept the same. Plus!3 automatically creates the logging directory if it doesn't exist so it will solve any problem related to import :).
But some people don't, although they want the same other options, so... A quick question on that:
Does it create the non-existing directory when you import the settings? Or does it create it when the first line of text is to be written? I'm curious about it, because if you create the dir when you import, this can result in some empty/redundant dirs all over the place, when you are importing settings from other users/accounts/whatever... If it is created when it needs to be created (when the first text is to be logged), you have to the time the change the dir in the preferences after the import and before it is created...

Or maybe another option when importing: "create logdir when not found"

(If you catch my drift)
