Hi all,

I love Postfix and I use it everywhere I can. At work, I now have about 6 of 
them for different uses. My MX alone accepts about 1 million messages per 
month. I must (forensic/support request/law) keep logs from all these Postfix 
servers, and more importantly I must be able to browse/search those logs.

Unfortunately Postfix logs are not so simple to parse, so properly indexing 
logs into logstash/elasticsearch in almost impossible. And working on patterns  
is doomed to failure, because Postfix logs can evolve (new release, 
de/activation of a featureā€¦).

That would be really awesome if Postfix could log into a structured format. I'm 
thinking about JSON, because that's what logstash/elasticsearch eats. But any 
key=value output is fine.

Any plan about such a feature/option on the roadmap ?

regards,
Patrick
