msg.walk()

[Samuel Wright]

Hi Guys

Using Python 2.3 here, trying to parse a MBOX email file using the code below:

------------------------

mailboxfile = 'emails.txt'

import email
import email.Errors, email.Parser, email.Message
import mailbox

def msgfactory(fp):
    try:
        return email.message_from_file(fp)
    except email.Errors.MessageParseError:
        # Don't return None since that will
	# stop the mailbox iterator
	return ''


def main():
    fp = open(mailboxfile, 'r')
    mbox = mailbox.UnixMailbox(fp, msgfactory)
    for msg in mbox:
        print msg
        for part in msg.walk():
           print part

if __name__=="__main__":
    main()
---------------------

not much there that isn't in the examples. Anyway, says I can't use
walk() on a string (msg)! Suggestions?
