README

track_msg is a tool for tracking email messages as they appear in a postfix log file. It finds the email(s) by making a match on sender and recipient, it will then follow the email(s) as they are queued and sent using postfix.

Usage

For detailed usage options please use

$ track_msg -h

The following parameters are mandatory:

One of :

• sender's email address the canonical email address of the sender. i.e: [email protected]. No regex matching is done on this address.

And

• receipient's email address a partial matching of the recipient's email address. So jane and jane.doe will both match the recipient [email protected].

Or

• message id of the email.

example:

$ track_msg -s [email protected] -t [email protected] -c postfix.log

Code for termcolor.py was obtained from PyPi

If using the official version, there's a patch that needs to be applied. The patch below fixes the problem of color reset when there's no color set.
