COLLECTD-EMAIL(5)						     collectd							 COLLECTD-EMAIL(5)

NAME

       collectd-email - Documentation of collectd's "email plugin"

SYNOPSIS

	 # See collectd.conf(5)
	 LoadPlugin email
	 # ...
	 <Plugin email>
	   SocketGroup "collectd"
	   SocketPerms "0770"
	   MaxConns 5
	 </Plugin>

DESCRIPTION

       The "email plugin" opens an UNIX-socket over which one can submit email statistics, such as the number of "ham", "spam", "virus", etc.
       mails received/handled, spam scores and matched spam checks.

       This plugin is intended to be used with the Mail::SpamAssassin::Plugin::Collectd SpamAssassin-plugin which is included in contrib/, but is
       of course not limited to that use.

OPERATION

       This plugin collects data indirectly by providing a UNIX-socket that external programs can connect to. A simple line based protocol is used
       to communicate with the plugin:

       o   E-Mail type (e.g. "ham", "spam", "virus", ...) and size (bytes):

	     e:<type>:<size>

	   If "size" is less than or equal to zero, "size" is ignored.

       o   Spam score:

	     s:<value>

       o   Successful spam checks (e.g. "BAYES_99", "SUBJECT_DRUG_GAP_C", ...):

	     c:<type1>[,<type2>,...]

	   Each line is limited to 256 characters (including the newline character).  Longer lines will be ignored.
