>Description:
My sendmail access file include reject lines like this:

66.54.87        550 Mail rejected by DTL - see http://www.dtl.net/blocked/?s=DTL&i=20040628000&a=66.54.87

The periodic daily report that lists rejected mail hosts needs to truncate the extraneous information following the host name or IP address from maillog.  Otherwise, I get duplicates of the same rejected domains -- thousands and thousands of them.
>How-To-Repeat:
Obvious from description.
>Fix:
If the script cut off the extra stuff, which would not affect the intended report output for typical systems, this would solve this problem.
