Yes, you're right, this is exactly what I want.
If I use this %encode{%m}{JSON} notation, I only have the string "%encode" in
my logfiles and not a the encoded message field.
Do you have an idea why this happens?

Using %encode{%m}{JSON} will only encode the message so that it can be
placed inside a JSON string with escapes already added. This is useful for
creating custom JSON structures as your output. If you just want structured
log output in general, the JSON layout (requires Jackson) is your best bet.
