Hi,

I am sending emails through email client, say for example mailgun. It has logs in the mailgun which would store my email logs only for 30 days. I would like to forward those logs to Splunk. Is it possible, and if so, how?

Thanks.

The log that is displayed in mailgun.
I think it is retrievable by api:
https://documentation.mailgun.com/api-events.html#events

So i would have to build a script to retreive the data and store it into a logfile. And ofcourse some logrotation.
After that, adding the file to Splunk and fieldextraction should be no problem.
