[Logcheck-devel] Bug#686144: logcheck: ignore.d.server/imapproxy regex for LOGIN and LOGOUT lines from syslog wrong

Package: logcheck
Version: 1.3.13
Severity: normal

In ignore.d.server/imapproxy the first two lines (LOGIN and LOGOUT) for the regex contain double quotes. These are too much, hence the regex does not work when used with syslog. 
Leaving them out, solves the problem.

example syslog entries for imapproxyd, which should match with the logcheck rules for imapproxy:
Aug 29 00:10:23 vserver1901 in.imapproxyd[22478]: LOGIN: 'info at linux44tw.de' (127.0.0.1:41773) on existing sd [10]
Aug 29 00:10:24 vserver1901 in.imapproxyd[22478]: LOGOUT: 'info at linux44tw.de' from server sd [10]

Original lines:
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ in.imapproxyd\[[0-9]+\]: LOGOUT: '"[_[:alnum:]-]+(@[-_.[:alnum:]]+)?"' from server sd \[[0-9]+\]$
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ in.imapproxyd\[[0-9]+\]: LOGIN: '"[_[:alnum:]-]+(@[-_.[:alnum:]]+)?"' \([0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}:[0-9]+\) on (existing|new) sd \[[0-9]+\]$

lines adjusted to work with the syslog entries from imapproxy:
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ in.imapproxyd\[[0-9]+\]: LOGOUT: '[_[:alnum:]-]+(@[-_.[:alnum:]]+)?' from server sd \[[0-9]+\]$
^\w{3} [ :0-9]{11} [._[:alnum:]-]+ in.imapproxyd\[[0-9]+\]: LOGIN: '[_[:alnum:]-]+(@[-_.[:alnum:]]+)?' \([0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}:[0-9]+\) on (existing|new) sd \[[0-9]+\]$

Two quotation marks too much in each line. That's it.
