I am trying to fetch some details that I get in a mail for a specific fellow developer. I wanted to create a python script to trigger of some actions as & when a mail comes from him with a specific subject.
Currently I am stuck on reading the mail part.
On some google searching, I came across appscript which can help me achieving the same, I need help as to how to use this library for parsing the said email.
I am trying to do something like this:
from appscript import app, k
def make_msg(text):
outlook = app('Microsoft Outlook')
msg = outlook.make(
new=k.outgoing_message,
with_properties={
k.subject: 'Test Email',
k.plain_text_content: text})
msg.make(
new=k.recipient,
with_properties={
k.email_address: {
k.name: '<My name>',
k.address: '<My email address>'}})
msg.open()
msg.activate()
if __name__ == '__main__':
make_msg("Sample text")
I need help as to how to read from a mail sent from a specific sender with a specific subject.
Appscript documentation: http://appscript.sourceforge.net/py-appscript/doc_3x/appscript-manual/index.html
Or if any other library can be used for the same in Mac OS Outlook application, also will be helpful.
