Hello @Annonyme1,
You can find a complete list of telegraf plugins here:

github.com

influxdata/telegraf/blob/2c56d6de81f5f9369d24c548f489f7543383b2d3/plugins/inputs/opensmtpd/README.md

# OpenSMTPD Input Plugin

This plugin gathers stats from [OpenSMTPD - a FREE implementation of the server-side SMTP protocol](https://www.opensmtpd.org/)

### Configuration:

```toml
 [[inputs.opensmtpd]]
   ## If running as a restricted user you can prepend sudo for additional access:
   #use_sudo = false

   ## The default location of the smtpctl binary can be overridden with:
   binary = "/usr/sbin/smtpctl"

   # The default timeout of 1s can be overridden with:
   #timeout = "1s"
```

You might also find the execd plugin useful.

# Execd Input Plugin

The `execd` plugin runs an external program as a long-running daemon. 
The programs must output metrics in any one of the accepted 
[Input Data Formats][] on the process's STDOUT, and is expected to
stay running. If you'd instead like the process to collect metrics and then exit,
check out the [inputs.exec][] plugin.

The `signal` can be configured to send a signal the running daemon on each
collection interval. This is used for when you want to have Telegraf notify the
plugin when it's time to run collection. STDIN is recommended, which writes a
new line to the process's STDIN.

STDERR from the process will be relayed to Telegraf as errors in the logs.

### Configuration:

```toml
[[inputs.execd]]
  ## One program to run as daemon.
