I´m running Splunk 4.x here and would like to import out flat file MS Exchange eMail tracking files into splunk. BUT it seamed there is no plugin available. Only a old one for splunk 3.x and exchange 2003 can be found.

Has anybody managed to import the eMail tracking files into splunk?

As of today, there is a new app: Splunk App for Microsoft Exchange. This supports import of the Microsoft Exchange 2010 Message Tracking logs

Exchange 2010 message tracking logs are simply CSV files, and don't require any special plugins for importing into Splunk. I think that the normal "exchange" sourcetype will probably generate a correct CSV field list from the file headers, but if it doesn't, one can be made by just defining the sourcetype:

[exchange2010msgtracking]
DELIMS = ","
FIELDS = date_time,client_ip,client_hostname,server_ip,server_hostname,

And so on...I didn't list out all the fields, but they're listed in the file header anyway.
