[web2py] Re: Read file attached from gmail

[Alan Etkin]

 Every day i did received a email (gmail) with a file attached (text) as 
rar. 
My question is how i can read this file attached from web2py? 

Try this (this recipe is for the last adapter modifications in trunk):

# Connect to the IMAP service with web2py
# For Gmail the connection string should be
# imap://youracco...@gmail.com:passw...@imap.gmail.com:993
imapdb = DAL(imap://account@domain:password@imapserver:port, pool_size=1)

# To fetch today's emails from a given sender:

# Note: your mailbox can have a different name.
# The complete mailbox tablenames can be retrieved with imapdb.tables()
# The actual mailbox name is in imapdb.TABLE.mailbox
emails = imapdb((imapdb.INBOX.created=request.now.date())\
(imapdb.INBOX.sender.contains(sender@mail.account))).select()

# Loop for processing any mail attachments
for email in emails:
# The email attachments (if any) are accessible with
# email.attachments (a list with the attachment data
...
