I have been looking at doing something similar, is it possible to send only 
part of the decoded message?
I have a decoder built to parse through a log file and would like to send the 
alert description and the extra data field if possible.

Is this possible without a large amount of code change? If not then it is not a 
concern and I can deal with the data I am receiving at this time.

Thanks,

Not without code changes. You would have to modify the file 
src/os_csyslogd/alert.c to remove the log[0] from the final message.
