This is an adaptation of the script I provided to your question from the other week, which I think will do what you need.
So the basic idea is:
Read in the file, and consider it one line at a time
If the line contains "BEGIN MESSAGE" clear the 'print' variable, and over-write the temp file with the current line
If the line contains "END MESSAGE" add the line to the temp file, and if the 'print' variable is set, print out the whole temp file to stdout
If the line starts with "Error" or Warning" set the variable 'print' to 1, and add the line to the temp file
If the line starts with anything else, add the line to the temp file
Hope this does the trick. If not, let me now and I'll have another crack at it.
EDIT: If you need to preserve the spaces, tabs and other formatting at the start of the lines before the text begins, add a line like this at the top of the script after the shebang line:
IFS='' (that's two single-quotes, and not a double-quote)
