MailAdditionalSubjectText

This documentation is for legacy Kiwi Syslog Server versions 9.8.3 and older.

Use this Kiwi Syslog Server registry setting to add a text string to the beginning of the e-mail subject for daily statistics and alarm e-mails. If you are receiving daily statistics or alarm e-mails from many syslog Servers, it can be useful to include a way of identifying which syslog Server the e-mail came from.

Section (32-bit Windows OS) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SolarWinds\Syslogd\Properties
Section (64-bit Windows OS) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432Node\SolarWinds\Syslogd\Properties
Value (STRING) MailAdditionalSubjectText
Default value Blank
Type Text string

In the registry setting, add a line of text that best describes the name or location of the syslog Server. The text will be added to the beginning of the e-mail subject.

For example, a normal max message alarm e-mail subject line looks like this:

Syslog Alarm: 16000 messages received this hour.

If you set the MailAdditionalSubjectText setting to [London], the alarm subject e-mail will look like this:

[London] Syslog Alarm: 16000 messages received this hour.

A space is automatically added after the text to separate it from the existing subject text.

You can also add additional body text.
