Logcheck devel - Sep 2011 - Bug#642466: logcheck-database: Should ignore postfix proxy-accept log messages

Package: logcheck-database
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When configured to use an smtpd_proxy_filter (e.g. with spampd), postfix
reports the status of the proxy request when it receives the proxy's
END-OF-DATA reply.  The log message is generated in data_cmd() at around
src/smtpd/smtpd.c:3133 and is logged for each email message.  For
successfully delivered emails, this message is always safe to ignore
while for rejections (which occur when a message is filtered by the
proxy) the message is usually safe to ignore.

To ignore only the successful deliveries, the following rule should be
sufficient:
^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ postfix/smtpd\[[[:digit:]]+\]:
proxy-accept: END-OF-MESSAGE: 250 ([[:digit:].]+ )?Ok: queued as
[[:upper:][:digit:]]+; from=<[^[:space:]]+> to=<[^[:space:]]+>
proto=E?SMTP helo=<[^[:space:]]+>$

And to ignore all proxy filter delivery messages:
^\w{3} [ :[:digit:]]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ postfix/smtpd\[[[:digit:]]+\]:
proxy-(accept|reject): END-OF-MESSAGE: [[:digit:]]{3} ([[:digit:].]+ )?.*;
from=<[^[:space:]]+> to=<[^[:space:]]+> proto=E?SMTP
helo=<[^[:space:]]+>$

I would suggest the second rule be added to ignore.d.server/postfix and
I am unsure if the first might be suitable for ignore.d.paranoid/postfix
or if successful deliveries should still be reported.

Cheers,
Kevin
