SMTP Rule

Hello,

I am having difficulty writing a rule.

To keep it simple, I will explain it this way.

Basically, I would like to create a rule that will check for the following
SMTP traffic pattern:

content: From:blah () blah com; content: RCPT.To:blah () blah net.

The problem is that in a SMTP session, the FROM and the RCPT are on separate
packets. I would have to look at two different packets in order to generate
an alert. I don't know if that is possible.

So ultimately, I would like to know if it is possible to write a rule which
will look at all packets in a session and if it matches the contents of the
rule, it generates an alert.

Thanks!
