Question

I've sent out a newsletter and am watching now the inbox of the bounced mails. I'd love to grep all mails in the mail user directory on the mail server for the email addresses. What I fail to find out is how I can grep for anything between "<" and ">" as most of the bounce mails have a line like this:

<some_user@gmail.com>: host gmail-smtp-in.l.google.com[74.125.136.27] 

Any help on learning grep by this example greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

This can be of help:

grep '<[^>]*@[^>]*>' input
