In almost all cases, this LF should not really +become part of the message. However, recent IETF syslog standardization +recommends against modifying syslog messages (e.g. to keep digital +signatures valid). This option allows to specify if trailing LFs should +be dropped or not. The default is to drop them, which is consistent with +what sysklogd does. + +**Sample:** + +``$DropTrailingLFOnReception on`` + |
