Can try this one:
Code:
sed '/^===\+ Carbon .*===\+$/,/^=\+[[:space:]]*$/!d' infile

You have a blank at the end of the last separator line so I included that [[:space:]]* to make sure it get's it.

The writelog script is used to write a log entry or send it as mail. The name parameter specifies the name of the log file where the entry should be written. If it is the word ``mail'' then the entry is mailed to the news administrator, <USER specified with --with-news-mas- ter at configure>. The data that is written or sent consists of the text given on the command line, followed by standard input indented by four spaces.
