The vstring categories = { ... } parameter lists the set of ID's that may be configured specially with regards to limits of how many of each id will be treated to be a given destination. The message ID is the string placed as the argument of edm::LogError("ID") or the other message-issuing functions.

This is a vstring parameter, so the ID's are comma-separated. For each destination, any or all of the categories listed may be used as a PSet name, to establish limits and timescales for that destination reacting to messages of that type.
