Hi, I am using imaplib to fetch Gmail's Inbox Archived message but results are not that much accurate. Here is code+logic:
def inbox_week():
import imaplib
EMAIL = 'myusername at gmail.com'
PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
mail = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL('imap.gmail.com')
mail.login( EMAIL, PASSWORD )
mail = imaplib.IMAP4_SSL('imap.gmail.com')
mail.select("[Gmail]/All Mail")
interval = (date.today()-timedelta(d)).strftime("%d-%b-%Y")
_, data = mail.uid('search', None,'(SENTSINCE{date})'.format(date=interval))
for num in data[0].split():
_, data = mail.uid('fetch', num, '(BODY.PEEK[])')
for response_part in data:
if isinstance(response_part, tuple):
msg = email.message_from_string(response_part[1])
for header in ['to']:
# This is logic for inbox-archieved messages
if (EMAIL in str(msg[header]) in str(msg[header])):
main_tuple = email.utils.parsedate_tz(msg['Date'])
yield main_tuple
I am not sure how to get the list of only Inbox-messages as well as Sentbox messages from [All-mail]. Do I need to any other library ?
