Perl seems to me like the best tool...
The messages sent and received are logged at level 2 of the SMTP
module with lines that look like this:
15:37:19 2 SMTP-069(zorch.sf-bay.org) [S.0000124316] sent, 1679 bytes
and this:
15:37:52 2 SMTP-070(n18.groups.yahoo.com) {S.0000124317} received, 2534 bytes
If all you want is a raw count, the code would be simple. The
following regular expressions should match the lines without any
false positives:
^[0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9] 2 SMTP-[0-9][0-9][0-9]([^ ]*)
{S.[0-9]*} received, [0-9][0-9]* bytes$
^[0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9]:[0-9][0-9] 2 SMTP-[0-9][0-9][0-9]([^ ]*)
\[S.[0-9]*\] sent, [0-9][0-9]* bytes$
I have no idea why Stalker decided to use [] for sent and {} for received.
