Want Perl script to sort mail_logs

[grant]

I would like a perl script that aggregated all log lines associated with a given message set from reception to end. It would be agonizing slow for me to tackle the job. Anyone out there have such a beast. I am looking for something similar to the qmLogsort script for qmail logs.
Any help really appreciated.

Don is right, you just can't do that. The ICID, MID, RID & DCID are all created as the SMTP transaction happens and all at different points in time.

Also the ICID, MID, RID, & DCID all have the possibility for a one to many relationship, with the potential of very high ratios. This is the reason they are tracked the way they are.

Sorry we can't make it simple, but this is how SMTP email works. :)

For Ironport ... what do you think about creating a new summary log where for each and every msg, you have a single line in the log that shows: date/time, sender, recipients, subject, classification.

The detail included in Mail_logs is great for troubleshooting, but not so much on reporting, as shown throughout this thread.

The product solution we are moving away from and replacing with IronPort had this type of log, worked perfect for us.

Feature request?

The binary delivery log gives you most of this, I think. I've never used it myself.
