In this case, the regexp in the logcheck rules should be permissive enough.
In fact, I just see that openvpn logs its messages with 'ovpn-server' on my server
and with 'openvpn' on all my clients.
So the logcheck rules are good for an openvpn server but not for an openvpn
client.
Why don't you want to allow 'openvpn' in addition to 'ovpn-[._[:alnum:]-]+' ?

Or perhaps, you would like to write another logcheck rule in ignore.d.workstation
with the same contents except 'ovpn-[._[:alnum:]-]+' replaced by 'openvpn' ?

  Best regards,
