Assuming no ':' occurs after the first one ...

Code:
$ awk -F: '$1=="Sample"{print $1,tolower($2);next}$1=="domain"&&e=index($2,"@"){print $1,substr($2,1,e-1);next}1' OFS=: input
Sample: abcdefgh
domain: when you think abcd
domain: abcdefgh
Goods for purchase:234
domain: efgh
Sample: pqrst
Sample: nmjkl
Sample: 123jjkl mer.
Goods for purchase: No ChaNGE

Much more general:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/awk -f
$1=="Sample:"{s=$0;sub(/^[^:]*:/,"",s);print $1 tolower(s);next}
$1=="domain:"&&e=index($0,"@"){print substr($0,1,e-1);next}
1

but really depends how formatted the file is to get specific good answer. =\

asadmin-start-domain

asadmin-start-domain(1AS)					   User Commands					 asadmin-start-domain(1AS)

NAME

       asadmin-start-domain, start-domain - starts the given domain

SYNOPSIS

       start-domain [--domaindir install_dir/domains] [--terse=false] [--echo=false] [--verbose=false] [--debug] [domain_name]

       start-domain  starts the specified domain. If there is only one domain in the default domain directory (install_dir/domains), then no oper-
       and is required to start the domain. However, if there is more than one domain, the domain operand must be specified. This command can only
       be run locally.

OPTIONS

       --domaindir	       directory where the domain is to be started. If specified, path must be accessible in the filesystem. If not speci-
			       fied, the domain is started in the default install_dir/domains directory.

       --terse		       indicates that any output data must be very concise, typically avoiding human-friendly sentences and favoring well-
			       formatted data for consumption by a script. Default is false.

       --echo		       setting to true will echo the command line statement on the standard output. Default is false.

       --verbose	       by  default this flag is set to false. If set to true, detailed server startup output is displayed. Press CTRL-C to
			       kill the server. Press CTRL- to print a thread dump.

       --debug		       by default this flag is set to false. If set to true, the server is started in debug mode and prints the JPDA  port
			       on the console.

OPERANDS

       domain_name	       name of the domain. Must be a unique name.

       Example 1: Using start-domain

       asadmin> start-domain sampleDomain
       Starting Domain sampleDomain, please wait.
       Domain sampleDomain started

       Where: the sampleDomain domain is started.

EXIT STATUS

       0		       command executed successfully

       1		       error in executing the command

       asadmin-create-domain(1AS), asadmin-delete-domain(1AS), asadmin-stop-domain(1AS), asadmin-list-domains(1AS)
