EXIM2DLF.IN(1)

📦 version 2.1.1, in arch rolling

✨ NAME ✨

Okay bestie, meet exim2dlf from LogReport's Lire Documentation — it converts exim logfiles to dlf format. Periodt. 💖

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

Like, the whole synopsis is just the command name, no extra drama:

exim2dlf

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

exim2dlf converts a Exim logfile to DLF format. Highkey iconic if you need your exim mail logs in that dlf shape. ✨

Info on the exim Mail Transport Agent? It lives at http://www.exim.org/ — go off, bestie. 🌈

The generic email dlf format is described in email.xml. That's the blueprint, iykyk. 🫶

💅 EXAMPLES 💅

To process a log as produced by Exim, you literally do:

$ exim2dlf < mail.log

exim2dlf will be rarely used on its own, but is more likely called by lr_log2report:

$ lr_log2report exim < /var/log/mail.log

No cap, that second one is the group-chat main character. 👑
