E-mail as Input

[comfone]

Hi all
We have many "services/tasks" sending e-mail as notification.
How could I feed them into NLS?
Did someone try that already?
Thank you in advance for your feedback.

There is an input designed for exactly this purpose. You can read about this input at the following location:
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstas ... -imap.html

Note that your mail system must support IMAP for the above plugin to work properly. You can define a new input on the 'Administration -> Global Configuration' page of Nagios Log Server.

Required options:

Code: Select all

imap {
    host => ...
    password => ...
    user => ...
}

After defining the new input, run an 'Apply Configuration' - this input will periodically check on that mailbox and import any new information.

Thanks!
