Code:
SHELL_VAR="PL/SQL procedure successfully completed. ERROR ----------------------------------------------------------------- Test Error Message PLUSVAR ---------- 1
"
var=$(echo ${SHELL_VAR} | sed 's/.*--//')
echo $var
output
-----

mail::message::body::nested

Mail::Message::Body::Nested(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation			  Mail::Message::Body::Nested(3pm)

NAME

       Mail::Message::Body::Nested - body of a message which contains a message

INHERITANCE

	Mail::Message::Body::Nested
	  is a Mail::Message::Body
	  is a Mail::Reporter

SYNOPSIS

	See Mail::Message::Body

	if($body->isNested) {
	   my $nest = $body->nested;
	   $nest->delete;
	}

DESCRIPTION

       The body (content) of a message can be stored in various ways.  In this manual-page you find the description of extra functionality you
       have when a message contains a nested message, like "message/rfc822".

       A nested message is different from a multipart message which contains only one element, because a nested message has a full set of message
       header fields defined by the RFC882, where a part of a multipart has only a few.  But because we do not keep track whether all fields are
       presented, a "Mail::Message::Part" is used anyway.

OVERLOADED

       overload: ""()
	   See "OVERLOADED" in Mail::Message::Body

       overload: '==' and '!='()
	   See "OVERLOADED" in Mail::Message::Body

       overload: @{}()

       overload: bool()
	   See "OVERLOADED" in Mail::Message::Body

	   modified => BOOLEAN
	   nested => MESSAGE

	   example:

	    my $msg   = $folder->message(3);

	    # The body will be coerced into a message, which lacks a few
	    # lines but we do not bother.
	    my $intro = Mail::Message::Body->new(data => ...);
	    my $body  = Mail::Message::Body::Nested->new(nested  => $intro);

DIAGNOSTICS

       Warning: Charset $name is not known
	   The encoding or decoding of a message body encounters a character set which is not understood by Perl's Encode module.

       Warning: No decoder defined for transfer encoding $name.
	   The data (message body) is encoded in a way which is not currently understood, therefore no decoding (or recoding) can take place.

       Warning: No encoder defined for transfer encoding $name.
	   The data (message body) has been decoded, but the required encoding is unknown.  The decoded data is returned.

       Error: Package $package does not implement $method.
	   Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this method where it should. This message means that
	   some other related classes do implement this method however the class at hand does not.  Probably you should investigate this and
	   probably inform the author of the package.

       Warning: Unknown line terminator $eol ignored
       Error: You cannot use foreachLine on a nested
	   foreachLine() should be used on decoded message bodies only, because it would modify the header of the encapsulated message. which is
	   clearly not acceptible.
