Quote

Can someone help me with this? I am trying to parse and email
header for all the "Received:" fields, then i have to extract the
ip addresses from them. But for now does anyone have a
parser thats written already, or provide me with a sample
please. Here is a header that i grabbed.

I only want these two fields back from the entire header:

Received: from 219.251.123.139 (EHLO yipvma.prodigy.net)
(207.115.63.28)
Received: from K2DFTQXW6K0YXC7 ([219.251.123.139])

Then i have to get the two ipaddy here
219.251.123.139
219.251.123.139

TIA anyone.
Use a TStringList, it will "cut" the header into seperate lines and then you
