pragmail is a library for retrieving email messages for other useful software applications.
It extends Python's built-in modules for internet protocols and support, maintaining the same degree of user flexibility.
Example usage:
>>> import pragmail
>>> client = pragmail.Client("imap.domain.com")
>>> client.login("username", "password")
('OK', [b'username authenticated (Success)'])
>>> client.select("INBOX")
('OK', [b'1357'])
>>> client.imap4.search(None, 'FROM', '"John Smith"')
('OK', [b'245 248 257 259'])
>>> client.imap4.close()
('OK', [b'Returned to authenticated state. (Success)'])
>>> client.imap4.logout()
('BYE', [b'LOGOUT Requested'])pragmail also equips you with several utility functions and a few useful methods for managing retrieved email messages. Please refer to the documentation for details.
