For programmatic access, the Python standard library ‘mailbox’ module <URL:http://docs.python.org/3/library/mailbox.html> supports reading “mbox”, and you then have all the Mailbox methods to select and extract messages. -- \ “Human reason is snatching everything to itself, leaving | `\ nothing for faith.” —Saint Bernard, 1090–1153 | _o__) | Ben Finney _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
