+=== Find Email To/From Email/IP Address ===
+Use the following script to extract all traffic for a particular email or IP address
+<source lang="bash">
+#!/bin/bash
+# Search for all mail for an IP address or mail address
+# Usage maillog-analyse <search-for-this> <in-this-log>
+# EG ./maillog-analyse 69.57.250.252 /var/log/maillog
+# EG ./maillog-analyse somejoe@domain.com /var/log/maillog.2
+#echo "Searching for traffic for $1 in $2"
+for i in `grep -i $1 $2 | awk '{print $6}' | sed 's/\://'`
+    do grep -i $i $2
+done
+</source>
+So, if you save the script as <code>maillog-analyse</code>, run as follows to send to the output to a file
+<pre>
+./maillog-analyse 125.57.250.252 /var/log/maillog.1 >maillog-filtered
+./maillog-analyse someone@domain.com /var/log/maillog >maillog-filtered
 </pre>
