Hi steve,

Thank u very much for ur help.

I read all u recommend me and it is very important.

It is also  the best place to display these values in the Export object feature.But i have difficulty gathering the  contents of an e-mail. So can u help me any idea on how to gather these values(FROM,TO,SUBJECT,DATE) from the packet-smtp.c dissector.

Any idea is most appriciated.

Thank u in advance.
with best regards.

If the contents of the e-mails are gathered also, the best place to
display this information is probably via the Export Object feature (File
- Export - Object menu).  The only object export implemented so far is
HTTP.  See gtk/export_object.c, gtk/export_object_http.c and a small
piece in epan/dissectors/packet-http.c for how this is implemented.
Hint: It uses the tap mechanism to pass the information from the
dissector to the export object dialog.
