There are some emails going deferred as we got some new IP's from our ISP. So I was trying to manually copy the deferred mail and forward it to our sales team so that they can contact our client. I am new to this script thing, but luckily I was able to write the code to extract the data I needed. But I need to automate the process, if you guys can help-
Code:
# Copy the deferred mails to a specific folder
cp `grep -rl 'abc@example.com' /var/spool/postfix/deferred` /opt/example
# Read the deferred mail id's (here is /opt/example/1FAAFEB279A for example)
postcat -q 1FAAFEB279A | grep -e Date: -e To: -e Cc: -e Subject: > 1FAAFEB279A.ex
mailx -s Deferred mail cba@domain.com < 1FAAFEB279A.ex
Advanced Thanks.

Dear Scripting Gods

Hi all,
Earlier today, I read an article on how to detect BitTorrent traffic using tshark (the cli version of Wireshark).
I wanted to have a go at creating a simple script, that when BitTorrent packets are detected the network connection will be throttled. The thing is that I am not great at... (1 Reply)

rbash
RBASH(1) General Commands Manual RBASH(1)NAME
rbash - restricted bash, see bash(1)RESTRICTED SHELL
If bash is started with the name rbash, or the -r option is supplied at invocation, the shell becomes restricted. A restricted shell is
used to set up an environment more controlled than the standard shell. It behaves identically to bash with the exception that the follow-
ing are disallowed or not performed:
o changing directories with cd
o setting or unsetting the values of SHELL, PATH, ENV, or BASH_ENV
o specifying command names containing /
o specifying a filename containing a / as an argument to the . builtin command
o specifying a filename containing a slash as an argument to the -p option to the hash builtin command
o importing function definitions from the shell environment at startup
o parsing the value of SHELLOPTS from the shell environment at startup
o redirecting output using the >, >|, <>, >&, &>, and >> redirection operators
o using the exec builtin command to replace the shell with another command
o adding or deleting builtin commands with the -f and -d options to the enable builtin command
o using the enable builtin command to enable disabled shell builtins
o specifying the -p option to the command builtin command
o turning off restricted mode with set +r or set +o restricted.
These restrictions are enforced after any startup files are read.
When a command that is found to be a shell script is executed, rbash turns off any restrictions in the shell spawned to execute the script.
