What exactly is going wrong? Please decribe in detail, post error msgs and a decent input sample!
As to your code:
- What's the "sudo" for?
- I reckon you need to apply command substitution to the date command.
- Why do you need the date at all if the search string is already at hand?

However, the user is able to show me that he wasn't logged in at that time nor have the rights to perform the event (e.g. su in this example).... (5 Replies)

sortm(1) General Commands Manual sortm(1)
NAME
sortm - sort messages (only available within the message handling system, mh)
SYNOPSIS
sortm [msgs] [+folder] [options]
OPTIONS
Specifies the name of the header field to use when making the date comparison. If you have a special field in each message, such as Deliv-
ery-Date:, then the -datefield switch can be used to tell sortm which field to examine. If you do not give this option, the default is to
use the Date: header field. Prints a list of all the valid options to this command. Displays the general actions that it is taking to
place the folder in sorted order. The -noverbose option performs these actions silently. The default is -noverbose.
The default settings for this command are:
+folder defaults to the current folder msgs defaults to all -datefield date -noverbose
DESCRIPTION
The command sortm sorts all the messages in the current folder into chronological order according to the contents of the Date: fields of
the messages.
By default, sortm sorts all the messages in the current folder. You can select particular messages in the folder by giving a range of mes-
sages. You can also sort messages in another folder by specifying the folder name.
If sortm encounters a message without a Date: field, or if the message has a Date: field that sortm cannot parse, it attempts to keep the
message in the same relative position. However, this does not always work; for instance, if the first message encountered lacks a date
which can be parsed, then it will usually be placed at the end of the messages being sorted.
When sortm complains about a message which it cannot order, it complains about the message number prior to sorting.
PROFILE COMPONENTS
Path: To determine your MH directory
EXAMPLES
The following example sorts all the messages in the folder +meetings: % sortm +meetings The next example sorts messages 10-30 in the folder
called +test: % sortm +test 10-30
FILES
The user profile.
