Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi,

I am using a mail application, When I use to check with the command, I will get the outputs as

q -s
6128175 (9, 9/6128175)
Return-path: minka.bell@abcd.org
From: "Minka Bell" <minka.bell@abcd.org>
To: <dcrouch@xyz.org>,
Subject: Open items with new PICT system

Using the shell script, how can i track out the more connections established of "From address" of the domain.

What output should you get from the example above?

For Eg:

100 <domainname>

Where 100 is the count of the From address of the domain.

I'm guessing you want someting like this:

Code:

grep '^From:' somebigfile | sed -e 's/<//' -e 's'>//'   |
awk -F'@'  '{arr[$2]++} END { for( i in arr) {print i, arr[i]} } '

Code:

nawk -F'[@>]' '/^From:/ {a[$(NF-1)]} END{for(i in a) print a[i], i}' myFile

Thank you for your update. Sorry to say, both did not work well.
I need the command q -s should be call from the script, i hope then only it will come out with the result.

I don't quite understand what's being said here, but...

Code:

q -s | nawk -F'[@>]' '/^From:/ {a[$(NF-1)]} END{for(i in a) print a[i], i}'
