Mandatory information about my setup:

Have I read the related troubleshooter articles above before posting (which pages?)? yes
Have I searched the tickets before posting? yes
Have I read the documentation before posting (which pages?)? yes (Blacklist Notification)
Joomla! version: 2.56
PHP version: 5.3.13
MySQL version: 5.1.42
Admin Tools version: 2.3.2

Description of my issue:
Is there a way to configure what information is in the notifcation that a site has been blacklisted?

In order to be able to process the mails automatically (eg. for blocklist.de) it would be nice to have more information in the notification mails AT sends when a site is blacklisted:

Subject: [Banned] Site - date
Content: <normal textblock like it is now>
<WHOIS-Info>
<Log of the events leading to the ban>

I am thinking of a format similar to the one of Fail2Ban. That way I would not have to login to the site to see why a site was banned and it would make reporting sites to the owners/provider easier.

Regards,

All this information is already present, except the WhoIS information and I'm doing that for a good reason (it is slow and could potentially cause severe slow down of your site). If you want to override the format of the email message, you can do so using Joomla!'s language override tool to override the language strings of the email header and message.

How do I get the eventlog into the message?

You can't. It would require querying the database for all records pertaining to that IP address which is not supported. Besides, why do you need this information? If you need to troubleshoot the banning of a specific IP you can always refer to the Security Exceptions Log. Receiving this information by email would only make sense if this information was not available elsewhere.
