please find python imap script below i use to make csv files etc

it will search all folders, sub folders etc and make a file based on display name and email address, i had started on a dav cal format but csv is all that is supported at this time. it was also designed to import hotmail address books for conversion?

was origionally intended to import to thunderbird.

it will give you a starting point.

Hello all!

Is there a quick and easy way to search through an entire mailbox for a user on my dovecot server and glean all the “from” email addresses?

This user would like a record of all the email addresses who have contacted him.

Thanks in advance for your ideas.
