input format is syslog means that message payload is already syslog protocol format doesn't it? And so you want to pass raw payload to syslog server.

Thanks! but it is difficult. fluentd is designed for structual data logging (json, msgpack, etc). And it is difficult to detect detail of inner payload format by fluentd plugin. To support this feature is too complicated for fluent-plugin-remote_syslog. Sorry.
