Hi Goitom,
I am not sure if you still have two requirements as you had earlier
(one for extraction of the from, to, subject and date fields and one
for display of these in a separate diaglog), but as I have suggested
before, I think you are better off using the IMF dissector instead of
the SMTP dissector. The IMF dissector supports extraction of all these
fields already.
So, if you want to setup the tap, I think you are better off tapping
IMF. I think the best place would be in the "while(!last_field)" loop
in the dissect_imf function of epan/packet-imf.c. Just compare the
value of "key" against "from", "to", "subject" and "date" (after the
part the key has been converted to lower case) and you are on your
way!
If you want to display the records in a dialog, you will probably want
to base the dialog off the expert infos dialog (Analyze > Expert
Info). You can have columns for Frame number, From, To, Subject and
Date. Or, as I have suggested before, you can use the custom columns
feature (see the attached screenshot with a sample file from the WS
wiki).
Unless you have some very specific requirements, I think the above
should work for you. I honestly hope this is of some help.
Good luck!
Abhik
PS: While researching this, I came across a bug
(https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2595) in the SMTP
dissector, so be sure to have your coloring rules turned on.
