Here is my solution for grabbing the real name. If the only text is the
email address it grabs that. It does it with two processes rather than
four.
It handles:
From: Geoff Mulligan <geoff(_at_)hz(_dot_)com>
From: geoff(_at_)hz(_dot_)com (Geoff Mulligan)
From: geoff(_at_)hz(_dot_)com
FROM=`formail -z -xFrom: | \
nawk '{a=$0; sub(/[^ ]*(_at_)[^ ]*/,"",a);if(a=="") print $0; else {gsub(/
*[()<>]/, "",a);print a}}'`
If you don't want to capture email addresses you can use this
FROM=`formail -z -xFrom: | \
nawk '{sub(/[^ ]*(_at_)[^ ]*/,""); gsub(/ *[()<>]/, "");print $0}}'`
geoff
