if yes.. how?

I need to search for some 2-3 mail addresses in multiple files and delete all those... and instead of them.. I need to insert a new mail id...( these are also other emails in that list .. which sud not be affected )

is sed 'll be a good choice...??
or is there any other way to make it more effective...

Thnks
Are all those email ids in a single line ? Or one per line ? Will you replace all those 3 mail ids with just 1 mail id or will you replace each one with 1 mail id ?

If one per line, then
Code:
sed -i -e "/john\@doe.com/d" -e "/foo\@bar.com/d" file.txt file1.txt

If it all-in-one-line or just scattered all over the place, then
Code:
sed -i -e "s/john\@doe.com//g" -e "s/foo\@bar.com//g"  file.txt file1.txt

NAME
pycmail - mail sorter SYNOPSIS
pycmail [-d debuglevel] [-t] [-c conffile] [file1 file2 file3 ...] DESCRIPTION
pycmail is a mail sorter similar to procmail, written in python, using python syntax for mail delivery. OPTIONS
file1 file2 ... read mails from file1 file2 ... instead of from stdin (useful for mail postprocessing) -d level, --debuglevel level set debuglevel to level. -t testing mode. No mail delivery will be done. Use in conjuction with -d -c conffile, --config=conffile use file conffile as a user configuration file (instead of ~/.pycmailrc ) -D define add define to the DEFINES list (this can be tested later in the .pycmailrc to modify the behaviour). Can be repeated several times to add more strings. USAGE
pycmail should be invoked automatically from the .forward file when mail arrives. Default debuglevel is 0, which means pycmail tries to deliver mail in almost foolproof way: if there is any error in ~/.pycmailrc file, mail will be delivered to the default mailbox (such as /var/spool/mail/USERNAME ). If the debuglevel is 1, any error in ~/.pycmailrc file will be printed, resulting in bounced mail (but pycmail will still try to deliver the mail to default mailbox). Higher debuglevels will print more information about the actual mail processing. The bigger the debuglevel, the more detailed information is printed. To test your configuration, do something like this: formail -s pycmail -d 2 -t < your_test_mailbox_file SEE ALSO
