And what have you found as you've started writing those scripts? Anything in particular you've run into that you're puzzled by?

This list can be a wonderful resource to assist you as you learn to write your first scripts, but please remember that it is staffed by volunteers who take their valuable personal time to help others learn. We're not here to perform contract programming for you, or to do homework for you, just to help you along the way as you learn to program in Python.

When you do get to a point where you need help, you need to be sure to ask meaningful questions and provide as much background information as would be needed for someone to truly understand what you're doing.  For example, in the message you sent, it's impossible to know what you're even trying to accomplish because you don't say what you mean by "fields present in Gmail" (I can think of a dozen completely different things that could mean, and you don't give enough information to actually be able to move forward with any of them even were I to guess which of them you intended.  I can't even make sense of the second one at all. You don't say what kind of access you're referring to, or what IP address has to do with anything (e.g., are you asking how to look up an IP address in DNS, or that the system isn't on a standard network which uses IP protocols, or what).

Assuming that you have your programming goals better developed than is apparent in your email, make a good start at your implementation and then tell us in detail what  you get stuck with. 

And just because we tend to get asked this from time to time, in case what you mean here is to somehow "hack" or illegally access a system you aren't otherwise allowed to access, we won't help you at all with anything like that. Don't bother even asking.

Ok, that's a very valuable piece of information. Since you're also accessing resources outside your scripts (other machines and mail services), it would also be useful to know the operating system and version of the systems involved.
