I need a script that script extract info from mail

Hello,

I receive email once an hour that looks like:
subject line: dialin
body:
ip address
ip address
.
.

sometimes the body has no ip address in it(blank mail)

I want a script that will send to my email every 12 hours the ip numbers and the time and data
something like:
data, time, ip

How can I do that?

Thank you.

This is not a board to request scripts to be written for you. Try and work out an approach and post what you have.
