This plugin gathers stats from OpenSMTPD - a FREE implementation of the server-side SMTP protocol
Configuration:
[[inputs.opensmtpd]]
## If running as a restricted user you can prepend sudo for additional access:
#use_sudo = false
## The default location of the smtpctl binary can be overridden with:
binary = "/usr/sbin/smtpctl"
# The default timeout of 1s can be overriden with:
#timeout = "1s"

Permissions:
It's important to note that this plugin references smtpctl, which may require additional permissions to execute successfully.
Depending on the user/group permissions of the telegraf user executing this plugin, you may need to alter the group membership, set facls, or use sudo.
Group membership (Recommended):
$ groups telegraf
telegraf : telegraf
$ usermod -a -G opensmtpd telegraf
$ groups telegraf
telegraf : telegraf opensmtpd
Sudo privileges:
If you use this method, you will need the following in your telegraf config:
[[inputs.opensmtpd]]
use_sudo = true
You will also need to update your sudoers file:
$ visudo
# Add the following line:
Cmnd_Alias SMTPCTL = /usr/sbin/smtpctl
telegraf ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: SMTPCTL
Defaults!SMTPCTL !logfile, !syslog, !pam_session
Please use the solution you see as most appropriate.
Example Output:
telegraf --config etc/telegraf.conf --input-filter opensmtpd --test
