Re: Extracting Pattern Match from log

Whilst I don't have any logs with myDoom virus attempts to test with, this should do the trick for you ...

perl -MEmail::Valid::Loose -nle 'print $1 if /450 <($Email::Valid::Loo
+se::Addr_spec_re)>/' < /var/log/mail/info
[download]

Or if you really want quick-and-dirty with a very loosely matching regular expression ...

perl -nle 'print $1 if /450 <([^\>]+)>/' < /var/log/mail/info
[download]

perl -le "print unpack'N', pack'B32', '00000000000000000000001010111010'"
