Hi KAM,

I'm not sure which message I'm looking for, but for that same file of 1,000,000 lines, I used this line to cut out all occurrences of "postfix" and count them:

$ grep postfix /tmp/mail_sample.log | cut -d " " -f 6- | cut -d "[" -f 1 | sort | uniq -c
      7 postfix/cleanup
      3 postfix/pickup
      6 postfix/pipe
     16 postfix/qmgr
      3 postfix/smtp
    293 postfix/smtpd

        Port 783 isn't open to the outside world.

        Kind regards.

        Jim.

Neat...  And how many times do you have a line indicating a new message from
postfix in the same period?

Firewall off port 783 on the box.  It's a longshot but perhaps something is
connecting to your spamd?

Regards,
KAM
