Is not the nicer solution, but you can try:

Code:
#! /usr/bin/ksh
#set -x
touch file_1
touch file_2
touch large
touch final
if [ -f large ]
then
cat /dev/null > final
fi
if [ -f final ]
then
cat /dev/null > final
fi
cat /dev/null > file_1
cat /dev/null > file_2
while read line
do
        echo $line | grep subject >> file_1
        echo $line | grep message >> file_2
done < $1
paste file_2 file_1 > large
while read line
do
SUB=$(echo $line | awk -F"." '{print $5}')
SD=$(echo $line | cut -b13-22 | sed 's/:/-/g')
SP=$(echo $line | cut -b40)
TS=$(echo $line |cut -b84-99 | sed 's/:/-/' | sed 's/:/-/')
VP=$(echo $line |cut -b112-114)
echo "$SD,$SUB,$TS,$SP,$VP" >> final
done < large
rm large file_1 file_2


_________

- execution ./script file_name
- the result is the file final

TOUCH(1)							   User Commands							  TOUCH(1)

NAME

       touch - change file timestamps

SYNOPSIS

       touch [OPTION]... FILE...

DESCRIPTION

       Update the access and modification times of each FILE to the current time.

       Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.

       -a     change only the access time

       -B, --backward=SECONDS
	      Modify  the time by going back SECONDS seconds.  For example, touch -r foo -B 5 bar will make the file bar 5 seconds older than file
	      foo.

       -c, --no-create
	      do not create any files

       -d, --date=STRING
	      parse STRING and use it instead of current time

       -F, --forward=SECONDS
	      Modify the time by going forward SECONDS seconds.  For example, touch -r foo -F 5 bar will make the file bar 5  seconds  newer  than
	      file foo.

       -f     (ignored)

       -m     change only the modification time

       -r, --reference=FILE
	      use this file's times instead of current time

       -t STAMP
	      use [[CC]YY]MMDDhhmm[.ss] instead of current time

       --time=WORD
	      set time given by WORD: access atime use (same as -a) modify mtime (same as -m)

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
	      output version information and exit

       Note that the -d and -t options accept different time-date formats.
