    Hi,

    Is it possible to extract any email address used in my VPS server, senders and recipients ?

    This way maybe I can create a list of emails to use for my marketing campaigns created with Mailchimp.

    Thanks :)

    There must be a command to query and extract addresses from logs

    You would most likely want to query the exim logs for this data I used the following successfully:

    Code:
    grep -i -o '[A-Z0-9._%+-]\+@[A-Z0-9.-]\+\.[A-Z]\{2,4\}' /var/log/exim_mainlog

    Thank you for the query.
    But I think the command extracted only the outgoing emails, because almost all emails belong to users on my server. is there a way extract global addresses ? incoming is more important.

    Thanks :)

    Hello @psytanium

    This is definitely pulling incoming and outgoing mail I confirmed this on my own server by pulling a few of the addresses I didn't recognize out and searching through the exim logs for them.
