There is additional timestamp format parsing code in logmsg.c
Also this new feature is mentioned in the NEWS file. Sorry but
I still don't understand what other information you're looking
for.

Did you try out syslog-ng 2.0.7? If it fails to recognise the
timestamp format your appliance uses then please provide at least
a full packet to check what is still missing from the parser.

Sandor
