Mail file parsing
Does anyone know of any tools that could be used to parse a mailbox file eg: /var/mail/root ? Basically I am trying to extract information from certain emails into a database.
Thanks, Paddy |
why not use grep | awk | sed?

Thanks yes I think I'm going to have to do that. It would be nice though if there was some package already that could break down the file into seperate files one for each mail and attachments.

Use your problem as an excuse to get to grips with regular expressions and the wonders of the text manipulation features of Linux/UNIX. Post any snags you have difficulty with and we'll be happy to help.

Thanks for the advise I'll give it a go and see how I get on.
