[clug] awk or Perl regex question

[steve jenkin]

Kim and everyone who responded.

Thanks very much for your useful replies. It was a really good mix - very enlightening.
I’ll get to them soon.
Stupid of me to not include some same data - apologies for that oversight.

There appears to have been a problem delivering email messages to me from CLUG via CAUUG.
I’ve no idea where the holdup was.

I’ve been looking for responses since I posted the question and had seen nothing until just now.
Then suddenly - a flood.

Doesn’t show up in the message timestamps, only in the file timestamps - a whole block at "22 Jul 16:17”.
[Info below]

With both CLUG & CAUUG I “rely on the kindness of others” for the services, so have nothing to be "toey" about.
I appreciate the free (to me) service and the hours of work volunteers put in behind the scenes- so that I can happily free load off them :)
So, no complaint.

regards
steve
