Reading Email Files in KSh Script
Hi, How would I make a script that reads a mail file, extracts the From: name and the Subject: line from each email, and then displays those to me in a numbered menu for me to see? I know theres a way of doing this without awk or sed. I'm fairly new to Unix so please help! :) Thanks, iGNiTE- iGNiTE
