=head1 NAME
SyslogScan::SendmailLine -- Enhances basic SyslogEntry parsing by
understanding sendmail to/from message syntax.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
Suppose I run a 'new SyslogEntry' command and read in the following line:
Jun 13 01:32:26 satellife sendmail[23498]: WAA18677:
to=bar@foo.org,baz@foo.org, delay=03:50:20, mailer=smtp,
relay=relay.ulthar.com [128.206.5.3],
stat=Sent (May, have (embedded, commas))
If I have not loaded in SendmailLine, then 'new SyslogEntry' will return
an 'UnsupportedEntry' object looking like this:
month => Jun,
day => 13,
time => 01:32:26,
machine => satellife,
executable => sendmail,
tag => 23498,
content => WAA18677: to=bar@foo.org,baz@foo.org, delay=03:50:20, ...
On the other hand, if I have a 'use SyslogScan::SendmailLine' command
before my call to 'new SyslogEntry', then I will a 'SendmailLine'
object with all of the above parameters, plus the following additional
parameters:
messageID => WAA18677
toList => ( bar@foo.org, baz@foo.org )
attrHash => ( to => "bar@foo.org,baz@foo.org",
delay => "03:50:20",
mailer => "smtp",
relay => "relay.ulthar.com [128.206.5.3]",
stat => "Sent (May, have (embedded, commas))"
)
Also well-supported is the 'From' line:
Jun 13 01:34:54 satellife sendmail[26035]: BAA26035: from=<bar!baz!foo>,
size=7000, class=0, pri=37000, nrcpts=1,
msgid=<199606130634.BAA26035@satellife.healthnet.org>,
proto=SMTP, relay=uth.bar.com [155.247.14.2]
will produce a SendmailLine object with the additional attributes of
messageID => BAA26035
attrHash => ( from => "<bar!baz!foo>",
size => "7000",
class => "0",
pri => "37000"
nrcpts => "1",
msgid => "<199606130634.BAA26035@satellife.healthnet.org>",
proto => "SMTP",
relay => "uth.bar.com [155.247.14.2]"
)
Other types of lines are legal, but are not currently very thorougly
parsed, and therefore return somewhat minimal SendmailLine objects.
Jun 13 13:05:35 satellife sendmail[19620]: NAA19606: NAA19620:
return to sender: unknown mailer error 2
will return a SendmailLine object with the usual SyslogEntry attributes,
plus the single additional attribute of
messageID => NAA19606
while lines like the following produce SendmailLine objects with no
additional SendmailLine-specific attributes:
Jun 13 03:00:05 satellife sendmail[26611]: alias database
/var/yp/nis.healthnet.org/mail.aliases rebuilt by root
Note this is a subclass for SyslogScan::SyslogEntry which handles
certain types of logfile lines. See the documentation for SyslogEntry
for further details of how SyslogEntry subclassing works.
Also, see the SyslogScan::SendmailLineFrom and
SyslogScan::SendmailLineTo modules for examples of returned
SendmailLine objects.
