I use BareGrep from http://www.baremetalsoft.com This is a free GUI Windows grep utility. Open the log file or files, type in the message id and the program will extract only the lines that pertain to that message.
How I normally use the program is that I get a message that the mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not getting through. If I know the day the message was sent I first open the sysDDDD file and search for the email address. Once I find the 'From johndoe' lines in the sysDDDD file I then have the message ID. At that point I open the decDDDD, sysDDDD, and virDDDD file for that day and search for the message ID. I can then see the message results from IMail SMTP, Declude Virus, then Declude Spam. It is a lot more helpful to have your logging turned up to High to see the details. I also use BareTail to watch the decDDDD files in real time. I have setup several color highlighting rules so I can see the message boundaries, and it also highlights each test a different color based on if I Delete, Hold, Subject, or Warn. It is a slick utility to verify changes are working the way that I want. I see that the company now has a new program called BareView that is a paid utility that has the functionality of both grep and tail. I have not used the program yet but I will probably check it out. ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: "Richard Farris" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [email protected] Date: Tue, 4 Jan 2005 21:45:38 -0600 >Is there a utility that you can type the message ID and get back the reasons >a test failed tests..instead of going into the logs and pulling it out.. > >Richard Farris >Ethixs Online >1.270.247.5555 Office >1.800.548.3877 Tech Support >"Crossroads to a Cleaner Internet" > >--- >[This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] > >--- >This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
