The reason I ask is because NIH has a FOIA request to provide messages sent to a particular list but only those messages sent from nih.gov <http://nih.gov/> addresses.  I ran an archive report and found that out of the 1800+ messages distributed via this list, only 126 were sent from nih.gov <http://nih.gov/> addresses.  These 126 messages are contained within many of the 56 monthly indexed log files.  I am trying to avoid a manual process if possible.

Hi, Janice;

The notebooks are text files, and anyone with basic AWK or PERL scripting ability could create a script to do what you need. Probably no more than an hour or two would be required. And of that it would be 10 minutes to write the script and the rest of the time to test and debug it. They would need command line read access to the listserv home directory, or at least a copy of the notebook files.

Best regards,
Larry
