I'm trying to parse an exported csv listing of the addresses from our Exchange server. I can split on the commas and get the various fields with one exception. One of the fields is Email Addresses which contains SMTP, MS, CC, & X400 addresses in seemingly no particular order. Here is couple of samples of this field:

SMTP:makeusbetter@domain.com%X400:c=US;a= ;p=domain ;o=domain;s=makeusbetter;%CCMAIL:makeusbetter at domain%
CCMAIL:Hunter, Sandy at domain%MS:domainin/domain/sandy%SMTP:sandyh@domain.com%X400:c=US;a= ;p=domain

Question is, how can parse just the portion of the address I want from this field ? I'm really only interested in the SMTP address. If there is an easier way of accomplishing this (from unix) pointers would be appreciated.
