All true Kev
If I didn't love you I'd be rubbed the wrong way. Write it down as another
imperfection on my soul ;)
Rest assured that I have other motivations and humor me.
Anyway, even that code I wrote is now running 18 hours plus and
still parsing mail. It makes me apreciaite what the boys working
for Wall Street go through. My regex must be chewing up too much
CPU power. It's using 99% of the CPU to do this and still running
and it has parsed a little over 30,000 messages.
m/^From\s+[-.=\w]+\-at-[-.\w]+\.\w{2,3}\s+\w{3}\s+\w{3}\s+\d{1,2}\s+\d\d:\d\d:\d\d\s+\d\d\d\d/
is the From line regex. And it is still missing some From Headers.
Perhaps I should reduce this to a more generalized format such as
m/^From\s+w.*\-at-w.*\s+\w{3}\s+\w{3}\s+\d{1,2}\s+\d\d:\d\d:\d\d\s+\d\d\d\d/
or even
m/^From\s+w.*\-at-w.*\s+\w{3}\s+\w.*\s+\d+\s+\d.*\s+\d.*/
Would that make it run faster?

You must be a stupid engineer then, because politcs and technology have been attached at the hip since the 1st dynasty in Ancient Egypt. I guess you missed that one."
