You probably need to spec this a bit better.
It's not clear whether you need help with writing the "dojob.sh" script,
or with taking the subject line and using the information in it to invoke
the command "dojob.sh job1 copy1"
You might be looking for this:
$ sed -n -e 's/^Sub:.*job=\(.*\) copies=\(.*\)$/dojob.sh \1 \2/p' emailfile
dojob.sh job1 copy1
...which you could pipe to a shell to get it executed.
Curious people might want to know whether you have some way of intercepting
the emails and processing them automatically as they come in,
or if you plan to do this manually with copy/paste and your email client (for example).
