Hello,

I keep getting the following email notification from the ossec server.

OSSEC HIDS Notification. 2015 Jan 12 06:00:01 Received From: 
trinity->/var/log/maillog Rule: 1002 fired (level 2) -> "Unknown problem 
somewhere in the system." Portion of the log(s): Jan 12 06:00:00 trinity 
smtpd[1161]: smtp-out: Error on session 07918aa71d08e40c: Connection failed: No 
route to host --END OF NOTIFICATION

This message occur because I relay my email to Gmail. By default, the 
system try to connect to the Google mail server via ipv6. As I don't 
have Ipv6 setup on my machine, it then to go connect via ipv4 and the 
message get send successfully...


In order to stop receiving this email notification, I added the following rule 
in my rules/local_rules.xml
<rule id="ID" level="0"> <if_sid>1002</if_sid> 
<program_name>^smtpd</program_name> <match>Connection failed: No route to 
host</match> <description>Ignore no route to host errors</description> </rule> 

This rule rule stop me from receiving the SMTP email if things go wrong on my 
ipv4 which is not so great.

This is the message  cat /var/log/maillog | grep smtpd

Now how could I write a rule like I did before but with the exception to ignore:
smtp-out: Connecting to tls://IPv6


Thank you very much
Fred
