Hi Everyone,

I'm very new to text parsing/NLP and I was wondering if OpenNLP can be used to 
extract mailing addresses from blocks of text, ie:

"Let's meet at 123 Evergreen St., Los Angeles, CA 90110 tomorrow at 10AM" =>  "123 
Evergreen St., Los Angeles, CA 90110"

I saw you posted also over at the UIMA list. You can use the Name Finder to recognize the parts of the address you wish to extract. Then you would now which parts of the line above are a City, Street, postal code, etc. But it cannot relate these pieces of information together yet.
