I have about 1800 text files that I exported from outlook that are all
bounced emails. I need to extract the email addresses that were bounced
back. Unfortunately not all mail servers bounce messages that look
alike. I was thinking I could just read through each text file and find
where the email address is but in a lot of the files there will be the
email address of the person who the email was originally from, the email
address of the server that bounced the email and the email address who
it was originally sent to.

The only time these files are consistent is when they were bounced by
the same mail server software. I was thinking maybe I will loop through
the ones that are in the same format, i.e. the email address that was
bad looks like ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and strip out everything but
the email address.

That's the only method I can come up with at the moment, has anyone done
something similar or maybe have a better solution? I really don't want
to manually go through each text file and copy and paste the email
address.

Thanks,
Ben
