So my email using the iMail Mailbox comes in with headers like this.
I need everything after the "____________________ Message Body ____________________"
How can I look for this?
blah blah blah
MIME-Version = "1.0"
mailbox = "Inbox"
size = 23156
____________________ Message Body ____________________

Let me know if this is what you are looking for:
| stats count | fields - count
| eval _raw = "blah blah blah
MIME-Version = \"1.0\"
mailbox = \"Inbox\"
size = 23156
Message Body

"
| rex field=_raw "(?msi)Message Body\s+(?<body>.*)"
Output:

Not really, I'm using this to try and extract the email body as i need to see the email headers, but need the body in its own field.
So it would return
Scanning server: xxxx
Time: Tue Jun 14 11:01:46 2016
Sender: xxxx
Recipient(s): xxx
Subject: xxx
File(s):xxxx
Other: Attachment: xxxx
GENERATED_ON=Tue Jun 14 11:00:33 CEST 2016
VERSION=xxx
SYSTEM_xxx
SERIAL_NUMxxxx
HOSTNAME\xx
SEQUENCE\xx
PARTNER_SYSTEM_xxx
PARTNER_SERIAL_NUM=xxxx
PARTNER_HOSTNAME\xxx

Sorry I'm confused. Isn't that what my code above is doing?
The regex will create a new field named body and the content is:
Scanning server: xxxx
Time: Tue Jun 14 11:01:46 2016
Sender: xxxx
Recipient(s): xxx
Subject: xxx
File(s):xxxx
Other: Attachment: xxxx
GENERATED_ON=Tue Jun 14 11:00:33 CEST 2016
VERSION=xxx
SYSTEM_xxx
SERIAL_NUMxxxx
HOSTNAME\xx
SEQUENCE\xx
PARTNER_SYSTEM_xxx
PARTNER_SERIAL_NUM=xxxx
PARTNER_HOSTNAME\xxx
