Reading mail using python

There may be a better way to go about this… however this works without requiring too much code.

* Use imapclient to fetch messages.
* Use fetch to get the full message using ‘BODY[]’
* Parse this with email.parser.Parser
* Use walk to pull out the message part (emails contain multiparts)

Victory.

A book on parsing

Seems quite complete…
