| # If the e-mail headers are in a file, uncomment these two lines: |
| # with open(messagefile) as fp: |
| # headers = Parser().parse(fp) |
| |
| # Or for parsing headers in a string, use: |
| headers = Parser().parsestr('From: <user@example.com>\n' |
| 'To: <someone_else@example.com>\n' |
| 'Subject: Test message\n' |
| '\n' |
| 'Body would go here\n') |
| |
| # Now the header items can be accessed as a dictionary: |
| print('To: %s' % headers['to']) |
| print('From: %s' % headers['from']) |
| print('Subject: %s' % headers['subject']) |
