Betreff: Re: [exim-dev] Exim own log format
Hello,

we use our own log string for each action in acl (deny/accept/another action
using warn):

logwrite ="msg_class":"$acl_c_msg_class", "msg_view":"$acl_c_msg_view", 
"acl_action":"$acl_c_acl_action", "acl_section":"$acl_c_section", 
"acl_rule":"$acl_c_rule", "message_id":"$acl_c_message_id", 
"to":"$acl_c_recipient", 
"from":"$sender_address_local_part@$sender_address_domain", 
"from_server":"$sender_fullhost", 
"acl_score_mta_reason":"$acl_c_score_mta_reason", 
"acl_spamlog":"$acl_c_spamlog", "acl_score_mta":"$acl_c_score_mta", 
"acl_advlog_inc":"$acl_c_advlog_inc", "acl_advlog":"$acl_c_advlog", 
"acl_score_mta_inc":"$acl_c_score_mta_inc", 
"acl_score_mta_prev":"$acl_c_score_mta_prev"        



Then log normalization rule on rsyslog made CEE log:

rule=ACL1_nomsgid_score:"msg_class":%msg_class:quoted-string%, "msg_view":
%msg_view:quoted-string%, "acl_action":%acl_action:quoted-string%,
"acl_section":%acl_section:quoted-string%, "acl_rule":%acl_rule:quoted-
string%, "message_id":%message_id:quoted-string%, "to":%to:quoted-string%,
"from":%from:quoted-string%, "from_server":%from_server:quoted-string%,
"acl_score_mta_reason":%acl_score_mta_reason:quoted-string%, "acl_spamlog":
%acl_spamlog:quoted-string%, "acl_score_mta":%acl_score_mta:quoted-string%,
"acl_advlog_inc":%acl_advlog_inc:quoted-string%, "acl_advlog":
%acl_c_advlog:quoted-string%, "acl_score_mta_inc":%acl_score_mta_inc:quoted-
string%, "acl_score_mta_prev":%acl_score_mta_prev:quoted-string%

rule=ACL1_msgid_score:%message_id:word% ....same as ACL1_nomsgid_score


After this we have logs in elasticsearch like
