I did it a little differently. To keep from deleting "valid" saved e-mails,
I did the following:
> cat emldelete
find / -name *.eml > /home/shawnf/eml.txt
#
for i in `cat /home/shawnf/eml.txt`
do
strings $i |grep readme.exe
if [ $? -eq 0 ]
then
rm $i
fi
done
The .nws files have the same basic headers and so forth, so I just wrote
another script to search for them. I know it can be done on one line, but I
like to keep it clean and easily understandable. That way, just about anyone
can figure out what I was doing should I not be here.
