Oh wow, I didn't know somebody else uses erpel. Since I don't use it (any more), please feel free to submit a PR which adds the patch and lifts the restriction.
I've just pushed a commit which cleans up some very old things.
I'm not sure what to do with erpel, I don't use it any more and I don't have the time to maintain it. Archive the repo?

I tried it out of frustration with logcheck and I have to say it is a lot better

It is a bit sad if you archive it but I totally understand it, I don't know go to maintain it myself.
thanks again for erpel!
I've commited your patch and archived this repo. Thanks again!
Hello
I'm migrating from logcheck to erpel and it is going well so far, thanks for this wonderful software :)
Writing rules I found that there is something that could be improved IMHO. The fact that the templates needs to match the pattern makes the rules harder to read and sometimes collides with actual ogs
Removing that restriction rules are easier to write and they are more clear for the reader (I hope), for example comparing the dovecot rules vs some of the rules I wrote
It is a lot easier to write and understand MsgID than 20160602211704.9125E5A063@localhost
123 matched an actual log line from one of my services.
I have chosen a pseudo camel case to name the templates with hopes it will never collide with log entries
here is an example of a descriptive template I'm using
here is a patch to accomplish this, which could be surely improved as my knowledge of go is pretty poor
