Hi a.

The mail format for elastic siem was a little weird for me at this point.  
For most case the mail got the right format out to me but on the case of winevent log it is a bit difference.  
when i try the `{{winlog.event_data.SamAccountName}}`  
This never worked for me.  
And some how some of the json never worked as well.

Thanks for your time.
