I can suggest mboxgrep; you can make your own script incorporating mboxgrep. You can also tell mboxgrep to just look at the headers. http://public.srce.hr/~dspiljar/mboxgrep.html mboxgrep --delete --headers \ --(extended-regexp|basic-regexp|perl-regexp) \ --mailbox-format=TYPE \ <patern> <mailbox> <patern> nalang ang problema. It also comes with a spec file if you want to build your own rpm.
