Hi again.
I just tried to send the example of syslog message in your administration guide and I've got the same effect :
Reformatting the message.

I've no "no-parse" I'm my config file, but syslog-ng drop pri, and the pseudo header(time&host) and put everything into $MSG.
Any idea ?

syslog-ng doesn't "add" anything. What it does is parse input, and forma
the message object depending on the input and output drivers.

If you use the syslog() input, it tries to parse rfc3164/rfc5424.
If you use the file() output, it formats using time, host, program, message.

If you want to track everything unparsed, use flags(no-parse) in the input,
and template("$MSG") in the output.
