Description:

addrcollector 2.0.0

A Python application for collecting email addresses from email messages

About
addrcollector collects email addresses from email messages. This is
similar to Thunderbird’s “Collected Addresses” feature and
corresponding functionality in other software. In the case of
addrcollector, however, email messages are read from standard input,
or manually on the command line, and the email address database can be
queried by keyword.
It is possible for addrcollector to be integrated with a mail delivery
system like Procmail or Maildrop to collect addresses from all
messages, or with mail clients like Mutt or Alpine to collect
addresses selectively.
Dates and display names are also collected. If an address is seen more
than once, then (1) the date is updated and (2) the display name is
updated if the new one is longer than the old one.
For example, to add an address manually (the display name is optional):
$ addrcollector add [email protected] "Jon Smith"
$ addrcollector add [email protected]
To import addresses from a message passed on standard input:
$ addrcollector import < mymail.msg
To search for addresses using keywords (multiple keywords may be
given and are ORed):
$ addrcollector search jon sven
2020-07-03 [email protected] Jon Smith
2020-07-03 [email protected]


Installing from PyPI
addrcollector is published on PyPI and can be installed with pip.

Install the addrcollector package.
$ pip3 install addrcollector
This should provide a ~/.local/bin/addrcollector script that you
can execute.

If that path is included in your PATH environment variable, you
can run the addrcollector command without typing the entire
path., To set up this, if it hasn’t been done already, add the
following code in your ~/.bash_profile (it may be
~/.profile for a shell other than Bash):
if [ -d "$HOME/.local/bin" ] ; then
PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
fi




Running from repository
If you have cloned the repository, you can run addrcollector from it
directly.

Install Poetry:
$ pip3 install poetry

With the addrcollector repository root as your current directory,
use Poetry to install the dependencies:
$ poetry install

Now that the dependencies have been installed, use Poetry to run
addrcollector:
$ poetry run addrcollector
