As mentioned before, you should use module "email":
------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env python
import poplib
import email
import os
import sys
import string
PROVIDER = "pop.YourMailProvider.de"
USER = "YourUserName"
PASSWORD = "YourPassword"
try:
client = poplib.POP3(PROVIDER)
except:
print "Error: Provider not found."
sys.exit(1)
client.user(USER)
client.pass_(PASSWORD)
nrof_mails = len(client.list()[1])
for i in range(nrof_mails):
lines = client.retr(i + 1)[1]
mailstring = string.join(lines, "\n")
blockit = 0
msg = email.message_from_string(mailstring)
for part in msg.walk():
if part.get_content_maintype() == "text" and blockit == 0:
blockit = 1
mycontent = part.get_payload()
mycontent = mycontent.decode("quopri_codec")
print mycontent
print
client.quit()
------------------------------------
See You
