OK. Now that I can do this, I'm wondering if I can put some
intelligence into it...

ie. is it possible to output these two lines depending on the value
of one of them?

What I'm trying to do is produce a list containing the From and Received:
lines where the Subject: contains high ASCII characters. To me, the
presence of high ASCII characters is a good indication of Chinese spam.
The aim is to identify the domains sending this spam and subsequently
block them via Sendmail using the SpamDomain filter file.
