Thanks vgersh99!
The key point is the substring of the current line to any of the lines that have been read. Kind of recursively comparison.
What's in my mind is:
as awk is processing one line at a time, I thought it is good to handle this problem.
may not be accurate. Each line for sure is a unique string, but can be substring/"parent"string of other.
Thanks a lot!

the date and time the message was accepted into the queue, and the envelope sender of the message. The second line shows the error message
that caused this message to be retained in the queue; it will not be present if the message is being processed for the first time. The
status characters are:
