Thanks .. I have few more doubts in this shell script ...

1) If i have a line say for example :: I have stored the output in a file

kkkkbbbb1476ysy <jyhshsh@ffassd.com> [expires: 2008-03-28]

when i give the above shell script , can i get the entire line .. if the condition satisfies..


This would be my last question .. i should be all set after this

The above problem has been solved .. once the Program finds that there is no values found .. it has to exit out from the shell and send an email alert As No key values found .. else it proceeds with the rest of the steps !!!

Thanks .. Kindly help me on this !!

Is that a question?

Your punctuation keys seem to print double every time.

Bug
Just to be Clear ..

If "No values are found " then the Program should exit out and send an email that no Values are found !!!

Thanks
