mail script to automate
Hi,
Here below the logs from the mail server:
less /var/log/messages:
Sep 6 04:03:31 server-59 out[30914]: 1252227811|webmaster@zilia.com|antonino.granata@gmail.com|2175|success|1
Sep 6 04:03:33 server-59 in[30897]: 1252227813|news@tarot.com|junk@thess.com|30376|success|1
Sep 6 04:03:35 server-59 in[30932]: 1252227815|mtarmizi@perak.gov.my|baha.ansari@risates.com.pk|2934|success|1
Sep 6 04:03:47 server-59 in[30933]: 1252227827|admin@joboffer.com|kemera@mol.com.mk|1736|success|1
Where:
1252227827 -> this is one of the id generated for every second. Using this id we can find out how many email where send out with in a second.
I 'll use the below command to find out the count of emails send out per account:
less /var/log/messages/ | awk '{print $1,$2,$3, +$6}' | grep "Sep 6" | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
Here below the output of the above command:
Output:
40 Sep 6 06:31:02 1252236662
36 Sep 6 21:07:39 1252289259
19 Sep 6 06:31:24 1252236684
17 Sep 6 12:14:22 1252257262
17 Sep 6 05:25:57 1252232757
13 Sep 6 10:51:03 1252252263
Then,
less /var/log/messages | grep 1252236662
It will list the count of 40 mails send out from this id:
Sep 6 06:31:02 server-59 in[27341]: 1252236662|afnaz.bv@sysh.com.sa|achupnm@gmail.com|8035635|success|1
Sep 6 06:31:02 server-59 in[27341]: 1252236662|afnaz.bv@sysh.com.sa|achupnm@yahoo.co.in|8035635|success|1
Sep 6 06:31:02 server-59 in[27341]: 1252236662|afnaz.bv@sysh.com.sa|afsal.ambalavan@alsaif-motors.com|8035635|success|1
Sep 6 06:31:02 server-59 in[27341]: 1252236662|afnaz.bv@sysh.com.sa|afsalpioneer@gmail.com|8035635|success|1
Sep 6 06:31:02 server-59 in[27341]: 1252236662|afnaz.bv@sysh.com.sa|akthabkm@gmail.com|8035635|success|1
So, I need to automate the process of the above one. while running the command it should email me the email account . For eg: the account "afnaz.bv@sysh.com.sa" has used 40 in count. I need a script to email me the top 15 counts and the email account. Is this possible Via the shell script.
